Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-terminal

When using the gnome terminal to scp a file e.g

scp <my_file> user@<my_ip_address>:/ho

Pressing the TAB key for auto completion makes the terminal hang, i
suppose its trying to connect to the remote machine to get do the auto-
completion. Unfortunately then it(gnome-termial) does not have a
password to connect to the remote machine and hangs. The following error
is thrown after about a minute or two:

ssh: connect to host <my_ip_address> port 22: Connection timed out
lost connection

On SUSE the terminal auto completes with the local file system as a fall
back.
