GNOME & GTK Applications
- GTK applications display hidden files and folders in their file dialogs (open/save as...). To change this behavior, right click when one of these dialogs is opened. An option to not display hidden files will appear.
KDE & Qt Applications
- kdesvn, when used with KDE < 3.5.6 can cause an error message with the context menu (although this is inoffensive), telling about DCOP errors. The fix is in KDE 3.5.6.
- Some applications are much better opened only once if they support tabs. For example, Quanta and Kate. Generally, they have a command-line option to tell them to use an existing instance. Open the KDE control panel and change the file association, so that the application is launched with this option. For Kate it is -u.
