Running Ubuntu (10.4) ext4 with ecryptfs - I was experiencing
intermittent system hangs, with the following errors:

wil...@alba:~$ tail /var/log/messages
Oct  5 21:16:43 alba kernel: [   79.277768] 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

valid eCryptfs format, or the key could not be retrieved. Plaintext passthrough 
mode is not enabled; returning -EIO

wil...@alba:~$ dmesg | tail
[  193.731660] 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
[  193.933541] Valid eCryptfs headers not found in file header region or xattr 
region

I removed Evolution in favour of thunderbird after installing, and after
reviewing the comment from Sam Liddicott, thought this must be the
issue!

Thankfully; mkdir .gnome2/evolution - I am no longer experiencing system
hangs!
