- Subject: ls not showing anything - sometimes
I started noticing a strange problem recently. When I am in the
/cygdrive directory I can't ls anything most of the time. Same thing
sometimes happens in my home directory too but it happens less often.
Here's some sample output. As you can see the /cygdrive
$ uname -a
CYGWIN_NT-5.1 1.5.24(0.156/4/2) 2007-01-31 10:57 i686 Cygwin
$ cd /cygdrive
$ ls
$ ls -a
. .. c g h k s
$ ls -a
$ ls -a
$ ls -a
. .. c g h k s
$
I know it used to work perfectly, but I'm not sure when this problem
began. I only started noticing it yesterday.
Are there any known incompatibilities with daemontools or Nero
ImageDrive? They are both programs that allow you to mount special image
files as a pseudo CD drive. I have both programs installed but neither
is running when this is happening.
