a file - maybe?
Running 10.04. I have a dir in which Konqueror insists there is a file
[as reported in 'properties']. Konq does not show anything in that dir though. A root terminal, in that dir, does not show anything either[with ls]. Nautilus says '0 items' - but when I try to look inside that dir, it seems to permanently hang with 'loading' instead of the usual 'empty' on actually empty dirs - so something seems fishy. What's really there, and how can I tell? If there, it might be an important file, so need to know...

In a terminal, type: sudo touch /forcefsck. Also ls -hal doesn't show anything? -- Ioannis Vranos http://tcho.net/cppdeveloper -- ubuntu-users mailing list ubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users |
