When I try to decompress an archive on NTFS file system, I can only
decompress single files. If I try to decompress the entire folder,
nothing happens.
How to reproduce:
1 put a compressed file on a NTFS file system (any format, even .zip or .rar)
2 double click on the archive to open it
3 extract a single file any way you want, it works fine.
4 Extract an entire folder, the status bar says: "Extracting archive right
now". Even the CPU reaches the 100% of usage. When the process is over, the
uncompressed folder doesn't appear.
5 The only way to extract a folder on NTFS partition seems to be this: right
click on compressed file and choose "extract here". Then put the new folder
wherever you want.
Sometimes (but not always), the extracted folder appears after a reboot.
I use ubuntu feisty fawn with latest updates, Gnome interface 2.18.1 and kernel
2.6.20-16-generic.
Gcc version 4.1.2 (i486-linux-gnu)
Xorg version 7.2.0 (04 April 2007 - standard with feisty fawn) with an
unsupported video card (Sapphire Ati Radeon 9250 AGP 8X). Right now I'm working
with default drivers and I have no problem. Even compiz works fine.
Maybe it could be useful to know that NTFS partition is mounted on the same
hard disk where the swap and ext3 partition are.
Right now I'm a new Linux user, and I don't know what package may cause this
little trouble. I suppose it's "file roller", but I'm not sure about it.
This is not a critical bug, so take it easy, there's no need to hurry.
