Seems to be an awful kfm bug. I keep receiving reports about it (I'm the maintainer) but I still can't figure out where this comes from, nor reproduce (no VFAT partition - and a lot of people have one and don't have the problem anyway). Do you have conv=auto or conv=text in /etc/fstab ? Is there anything logged in /var/log/messages when this happens ? It seems this is related to .directory files. Do you have one in /mnt/* ? Is it a normal one ? An empty one ? A directory (!) ? If somebody could also run kfm in gdb and give me a backtrace that would be great. -- David FAURE [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://home.clara.net/faure/ KDE, Making The Future of Computing Available Today
