I find that very hard to believe that could happen especially since the only process I have that continuously wakes every 2 minutes if fetchmail and it's not an X process. I can open Gnome terminal and see that the timestamp -rw------- 1 chris chris 2 Feb 28 08:42 user is the same as when I go to check it with the ls -l command. IOW I'm beginning to agree with you now that I don't think the permissions are being changed but tracker thinks they are. Does that sound about right?
Since I'm retired and don't have much else to do except tend to my plants and go to doctors appointments at the VA I'll give setting up the backtrace you need a try if you can point me to a good how-to.
