file manager problem
 

I observe some strange behaviour in the file manager. When starting the file manager I get a screen with 2 folders: one for the internal diskdevice and one for the memory card.

Everything looks fine when looking in the memory card folder.
But in the internal memory folder I see double entries:
The "Audio clips" folder is shown twice, as is 'Camera' and 'Documents' and 'Images' and 'Video Clips'.

Within some subfolders some files are also listed twice...

I thought this is caused by the tracker daemon so I cleared the tracker files, but that does not help.

Anyone any ideas about this?

its a known bug, update 1.1 should fix it

hm, I'm at version 3.2010.02-8. That is 1.1.1 isn't it?

then you should not have this issue. not sure how to help you, try removing ur microSD and see

It's bug 5838 and the fix is due to be in PR1.2. As a workaround, you can try deleting some of the other files/folders in MyDocs (don't try deleting the doubled-up folders though).

I believe the number of files and folders shouldn't exceed 32. Once it does, you'll get duplicate files. Keep it under that number and you should be fine. What i do is put all my random crap in a folder called Random.

If you're comfortable using x-term, it might be worth checking your MyDocs folder for files with names starting with '._' (since their filenames start with a dot they will be invisible in filemanager)
I had the same problem you had a while back, and deleting the files starting with '._' (without the quotes of course) solved it for me... (didn't seem to be the 32+ files problem since I never had that many files in my MyDocs folder)

So going into x-term, you can list your files using
and if you see any files starting with ._ you can delete them with the following command:
Hope this helps...

THAT FIXED THE PROBLEM !!
I have some files, .gpx, audio, images and other things in the root of MyDocs, so i made a directory called STUFF and put all that into there and now the duplicated folders are GONE.

Thanks !!! :)
