Re: Strange phenomen accessing a CDROM contents under linuxerator

2000-04-14 Thread Nick Hibma


The one directory I can remember that was missing from the acroread
file selector was a symbolic link (to the directory with the documents
I wanted of course :-). /usr/export was not found, but /usr/export/usb
was found when typed in in the top edit box.

 I see the same thing on 4.0-STABLE, so far only using linux-netscape.
 When I go to select a directory for download, or when accessing an HTML
 file to be opened, certain directories always appear to be missing.
 Only one that comes to mind at the moment is the ports directory when
 looking in /usr.

Aha, that would account for some of my symlinks to give me not the
results I was expecting.

 FreeBSD is -current, Linux is linux_base and linux_devel from ports.

Do you see this on other filesystems as well?

BTW: How old are your linux_base and linux_devtools ports?

Looks like this phenomenon isn't connected with CDROM. Actually, I see it
rather often with file selectors in Linux apps here (like Netscape when
choosing local file, StarOffice etc.): some files/dirs are missing.

 looking at directories on a mounted CDROM returns fewer files under the
 linuxerator as watched under a native account.

 It seems that the entries dont miss randomly but get cut after some point.
 FreeBSD is -current, Linux is linux_base and linux_devel from ports.
 Kernel and (linux)module are in sync.

Same environment.

 
 Anyone able to reproduce this?
