probable ext4 filesystem error? Jan 10th 2013, 06:00 On her openSUSE 12.2 system running KDE4, my sister created a subdirectory, from the command line, in her home directory, then found it unusable. When she tried to look at it with dolphin it did not show up at all. From the command line, ll (ls -l) shows the following: skywalker:~ $ ll ~lynn ls: cannot access /home/lynn/kindle: Permission denied total 72K : drwxr-xr-x 10 lynn users 4.0K Mar 14 2010 DosGames d????????? ? ? ? ? ? kindle drwxr-xr-x 2 lynn users 4.0K Jan 9 20:55 Kindle : $ She tried to remove it (both from her account and from root), and got this: skywalker:~ # rmdir ~lynn/kindle rmdir: failed to remove '/home/lynn/kindle': Device or resource busy $ She was able to create _another_ directory with the same name with dolphin, after which ll shows: skywalker:~ $ ll ~lynn ls: cannot access /home/lynn/kindle: Permission denied total 72K : drwxr-xr-x 10 lynn users 4.0K Mar 14 2010 DosGames d????????? ? ? ? ? ? kindle drwxr-xr-x 2 lynn users 4.0K Jan 9 20:55 Kindle : $ I'm guessing that the filesystem is corrupted, but I thought I'd better run it past the experts to see what you think. Can this be fixed by running fsck from a bootable CD? Leslie
