then restart phone, it might take a while indexing your media again depending how much you have. but won't list anything in private folder.
How do you view the files which is hidden in Private folder dude?

Before the topic goes completely off-topic discussing kittens...
Hiding is easy but what maemo lacks is a good app for encrypting.. we already have apps like password safe which encrypt and keep a log of our passwords, it would be nice to take the idea one step more and have a better interface to quickly encrypt a file and retrieve it with a slightly modified app

When i had my SE-C902, i discovered that I could hide certain pictures from being visible in the gallery or file manager. What I did was change the properties of the photo. (This is only a possible fix using windows, other OS's may work in a similar way)
select the photo you want to hide;
right click,
goto properties,
and you'll see 3 tick boxes, tick the box that says "hidden" then apply, then ok to exit. now the image itself is on the phone, but it should not be viewable in the gallery. I haven't tested this method yet on the N900 but it worked on my SE. let me know if this works for you.

One possible use of gpg is to encrypt files.
I've had amusing uses for it.
Encrypt
$ gpg -c myfile.txt
(outputs myfile.txt.gpg. you may then wish to
$ rm myfile.txt
which deletes the original file)
Decrypt
$ gpg myfile.txt.gpg
You may also wish to rename the file after encrypting it ( $ mv myfile.txt nothingtoseehere but it may prompt for a rename of the output, you can simply press enter to keep the old/default filename)
EDIT: james174's idea is...much less secure than gpg (and don't kid yourself there either). On linux the CLI equivalent would be to rename the file or folder with a dot/period prefix, as in .documents This isn't real security and meant to keep directories "pretty".
