I just read through all the comments (I hope), and did not find this mentioned, so I thought it might be helpful..
I had the problem for a long time, but didn't bother too much. Now it got annoying and after some searching I installed mainline 2.6.30 to see if it would work. As has been mentioned here before it does, but unfortunatly my UMTS didn't work anymore, so I just deleted my Trash and went back to .28 After logging in I found I had 10GB more space on my Home-Partition (the Trash only had ~1GB in it) The partition is only 40 GB total, so that's a lot. I checked if something was missing, but didn't find anything, which was strange. I ran baobab just out of curiosity and there I found 5GB in ~/.local/share/Trash/expunged/ On closer inspection these were all files I supposedly deleted a long time ago, when the freeze appeared afterwards. I have no idea how they got there, I'm just a user...but maybe that info can point someone into the right direction. -- Soft lockups (freezes) when deleting files from ext4 partitions on 2.6.28 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/330824 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
