I use Gnome version 2.14.1, and I happen to have a gvim icon on my toolbar. With that, I don't see the problem you're having. What does :pwd show? ie. gvim . :pwd (select file)<cr> :pwd :e . :pwd And again: are you doing the sequence above (excepting that you're using a icon instead of the initial gvim)?
