Hey Strange Happening Seekers; I hope this is the correct list to ask. SuSE 11.2 off a DVD.iso upgraded by "zypper upgrade" or "zypper dup" Running in runlevel 3. I have noticed that something is writing header files in "/" or root directory. Last night I removed all of the blue basic / directory files.h, files .o and transactions.db leaving all of the blue Linux/UNIX root directories. What is dumping these files.h into the / directory? Furthermore, "locate mediamode.h is not found based on a earlier "upadtedb" locate index. That implies something created them not just moved them. Erased/cleared last night around 11 PM CST and this AM around 7 AM. "ls /" showed abstractaudiooutput.h home phonondefs.h abstractaudiooutput_p.h i586-suse-linux phonondefs_p.h abstractmediastream.h lib phonon_export.h abstractvideooutput.h lost+found proc abstractvideooutput_p.h media qsettingsgroup_p.h backendinterface.h medianodedestructionhandler_p.h root bin mediamode.h sbin boot medianode_p.h srv crti.o mediasource.h sys crtn.o mediasource_p.h tmp dev mnt transactions.db etc objectdescription.h usr factory_p.h objectdescriptionmodel.h var globalconfig_p.h opt videowidget.h globalstatic_p.h path.h videowidget_p.h -- 73 de Donn Washburn 307 Savoy Street Email:" n5xwb@comcast.net " Sugar Land, TX 77478 LL# 1.281.242.3256 Ham Callsign N5XWB HAMs : " n5xwb@arrl.net " VoIP via Gizmo: bmw_87kbike / via Skype: n5xwbg BMW MOA #: 4146 - Ambassador " http://counter.li.org " #279316 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
