Good news! I found a one-liner patch and now am no longer seeing problems with Konqueror updating file information. I posted the complete story in the bug report: http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=756 I attached the patch to the bug report. Simply put: the patch works. What a joy to see the file pane update immediately! The patch should back port to 3.5.13. Please test! :) :) :) :) Darrell
