Okay, thanks.  When you say the directories don't open up, does the
file chooser go into edit mode?   On Linux, we find that sometimes
clicking on a file name ends up in rename mode.  Try the following:

- click once on the folder
- hit the return/enter key

Does that open the folder?

Sometimes, making sure you are clicking on the middle of the icon
is a bit more effective.  One of our developers always uses the click
+ enter mode to go from directory to directory.  It seems to be
a problem mostly on Linux.
