Its a terrible problem. i also had it the first day i used the n900. I dont understand why you have to do all these stupid xterm commands to get the god damn device working again. why cant there just be a button in maemo witch on press clears the read only garbage and get going again... why does every freaking thing needs to be so hard.
Atleast i now know why so many people use Windows and not linux

Well when people break other phones they ca't fix them because they have no access
And when they do, they complain you need to be a computer engineer to fix things
Guess you can't win..
Btw, "Safely remove device" in windows is there for a reason.

Anyone who is having this problem just connect your n900 with your windows pc in mass storage mood and a window should popup with dialoudge "scan for fix file system error" or similler, click on that and wait. If no window popup, than right click on n900 drive and go to properties then go to 'tools' tab and click "check Now" then click 'start' and wait. After the work done, your n900 now should have the ability to delete those files or folder its could'nt before.

Hi gaffa
I had the same issue, with transmission, after it crashed the
/home/user/MyDocs folder became readonly, and I could not
delete the torrents and or save any pictures.
This is what I did :
1) From xterm I signed in as root and remounted the filesystem in
/home/user/MyDocs as read and write.
2) I deleted the torrentsCode:mount -o remount,rw /home/user/MyDocs
3)Checked what device was mounted /home/user/MyDocs underCode:rm -rf /home/user/MyDocs/Downloads/files.torrent*
4) And runed fsck.vfat to clear filesystem inconsistencies on theCode:Nokia-N900-42-11:~# df -h /dev/mmcblk0p1 27.0G 1.3G 25.7G 5% /home/user/MyDocs
device reported /dev/mmcblk0p1
a) I unmounted filesystem first *****that is very important
b) Then fsck.vfat /dev/mmcblk0p1Code:Nokia-N900-42-11:~# umount /home/user/MyDocs/
I had to run fsck.vfat a few times until it came up clear vCode:Nokia-N900-42-11:~# fsck.vfat /dev/mmcblk0p1 dosfsck 3.0.1, 23 Nov 2008, FAT32, LFN alleged total clusters: 442377 4424 8848 13272 17696 checked clusters: 21510 /dev/mmcblk0p1: 1797 files, 21510/442377 clusters Nokia-N900-42-11:~#
5) I rebooted the n900 and all was OK.

When I run:and then it askes me:Code:fsck.vfat /dev/mmcblk0p1 fsck version and so forth. alleged total clusters: 442377Suggestions?Code:FATs differ but appear to be intact. Use which FAT ? 1) Use first FAT 2) Use second FAT
by pressing '1' for the first FAT and then answering 'yes' if I wanted to make some changes.
Then just reboot and filesystem is read/write again.
I think it comes up if you have an SD card, thus the 2 choices.
