Hi, in Nautilus and the Gnome file-opening dialog, I frequently use the ability to jump to a file by typing in its name. However, after upgrading from 7.10 to 8.04, this no longer works. Did this get disabled? Can I enable it? Thanks in advance for any help!

it is due to scim

use the command:
im-switch -c
and choose "scim-immodule" instead of scim
