Latest version of Gnome Nautilus come by defaut with the "spatial mode", this is really kool, but i hate the fact it open another window for every click. After a quick search, i don’t find anything .. but today i discover this, and the scoop is to disable nautilus spatial: use gconf-editor and set /apps/nautilus/preferences/always_use_browser to true.
This works really well too:
gconftool-2 –type bool –set /apps/nautilus/preferences/always_use_browser true

Fedora Faq is a great reading, even for people who use other distros :)
Thanks for the link.
I was searching this feature, thanks.
Thank you! I love Gnome, but the multi-window madness was driving me crazy!
You saved my day, 3 years later ;)
