Not sure if this helps. Before I reinstalled MDK 7.0 if I ripped a Cd using Grip and then copied the whole directory of mp3's to my fat32 partition I would find that I could not access the copied directory without a hang. Booted into Win98 went to the directory and discovered a file called .directory - if I deleted this file then back in Linux everything was hunky dory. Since the reinstall this has not been a problem

Took an mp3 from my ext3 partition and copied it to a vfat partition. xmms plays it fine.
