I think I did mention i was using Gnome below. However, I had no idea
that the "popup" window for typing was available. Quite usable, but I
would never have guessed. I feel there is a bit of a UI design problem
there.
Thanks!

It seems like the File/Open dialogs in the Fedora/Gnome apps no longer
have a way to type in a path to a file, which is fine for casual local

Is there any way to change this behaviour?
Thanks,

You did not say which desktop (KDE, gnome, etc.), but in gnome you can
just start typing the path and a textbox will appear. BTW: I'm not
very fond of the Open Dialog either.
