Konq reports the directories as ULAW (Sun) Audio
VIEW->VIEW MODE->TEXT VIEW doesn't work, the only way to access the
directory is to double click the name, which then puts the browser into
"noatun" mode. Once in "noatun" mode the "view mode" option does not
appear in the view menu :-)
VIEW->VIEW MODE->TREE works with conditions.
I have to set the view mode before arriving at the directory
If I double click the name, I'm asked if I want to open the directory
with noatun
I can click on the + to reveal the contents of the directory
That's enough to get me working, so I'm pleased.
All in all that's pretty lame. The interface is interfering.
