I'm on a different machine today, but I'll have to try this out on Friday when I'm using the machine I upgraded on. Is there any way to switch Geany to using inotify over stat? I'm not sure if that'd help, but worth a try. _______________________________________________ Users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.geany.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/users
