Anyone have this same problem and any ideas what to do about it? Thanks! PS I'm using v8.1 BTW... I've got exactly the same problem. It looks like a sort of temporary directory index that doesn't get removed when the job is done. What filesystem are you using? I'm using ext2.

Re: [newbie] fill in the blank.directory question...
sorry, I used the show hidden files tab and now ...even tho it's there. i don't see it. some times a hidden file might just be something you need, and if it seems empty when you look at it, when it;s needed, it sure would be nice to have, and really, in that 40 gig HD, how much space are you losing?
