Hi, Sorry for a Gnome question. does anyone know of a configurtion trick in Gnome so that when browsing the filesystem the new directory opens in the same on-screen window and not in a new one? It's driving me nuts that when I go 8 levels down on my wife's machine that I end up with 8 windows. It's a mess.
Thanks in advance and sorry for the distraction.

You can either:
1) change Nautilus to "browser" mode (the old way it used to do it), by opening it with the --browser switch, or setting it to browser mode in gconf-editor; or
2) if otherwise you don't mind spatial Nautilus, you can hold down the "Shift" key (I think; it might be CTRL, so check the menus or help) when clicking on a history link at the bottom corner of the window, or on a folder in the window. This causes the new folder to open in the same window rather than another one.
HTH, Holly
