But the problem with other directory contents is still the same!!!! For example a mounted cdrom /cdrom with strongly missing directories (some appeared, most disappeared) and files or various user/system directories. Tested for example with linux netscape (from FreeBSD-4.1.1 packages), acrobat4 . All programs show the same files/dirs or not. We have done some debugging in the kernel source code (mainly sys/i386/linux/linux_file.c) and have seen, that indeed the getdents function only returns some of the entries of the specific directory. But, from this already shrinked converted dir list (with missing entries), additionaly some files/dirs lost "on the way" to the user program and were never shown by the user program. Very strange and serious problem. Bye, Malte & Stefan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
