Im moving from Kubuntu 10.04 (KDE 4.4.5 with Dolphin 1.4) to Kubuntu 12.10 (KDE 4.9.5 with Dolphin 2.1).

In 1.4 switching directories in the file list would change the current directory in the terminal panel, but not in the other direction. In the new version the file list tracks directory changes even when they are not explicitly done. This can be a severe nuisance (find, man...). Is there a way to disable this?

This cannot be disabled, sorry.
