I am seeing similar behavior to #159, except my lockups are so frequent that I cannot even use my laptop anymore. I'm running 11.10 64-bit with all the latest updates.
I see tons of "Either the lower file is not in a valid eCryptfs format, or the key could not be retrieved. Plaintext passthrough mode is not enabled; returning -EIO" messages in the log files (syslog and kern.log). I noticed that this problem became much much worse after the most recent update. I have ~600,000 files in my home directory, I don't know if that is a contributing factor. Today my laptop froze, requiring reboot (could not even ssh into it) about 15 times. The last time it froze the matlab code that I was writing was completely corrupted (looked at it in a hex editor, totally mangled) upon reboot. I'm going to convert to a non-encrypted home and I'll report back whether the freezes stop (if they don't then it must be something else). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/509180 Title: ecryptfs sometimes seems to add trailing garbage to encrypted files To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ecryptfs/+bug/509180/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
