Hi,

I just installed my first 2.6.36 kernel, 2.6.36-rc1-wl+ from
wireless-testing, and immeadialy (during first boot) got major
corruption in the filesystem. For example, gnome lost it's settings,
~/.ssh was empty etc. Now, with an older kernel, my directory
structure has duplicate entries, like this:

$ ls -ald D*
drwxr-xr-x 2 kvalo kvalo 4096 2010-08-17 19:21 Desktop/
drwxr-xr-x 2 kvalo kvalo 4096 2010-08-17 19:21 Desktop/
drwxr-xr-x 2 kvalo kvalo 4096 2010-08-17 19:21 Documents/
drwxr-xr-x 2 kvalo kvalo 4096 2010-08-17 19:21 Documents/
drwxr-xr-x 2 kvalo kvalo 4096 2010-08-17 19:21 Downloads/
drwxr-xr-x 2 kvalo kvalo 4096 2010-08-17 19:21 Downloads/

I'm using ecryptfs and that's my major suspect for the corruption, but
naturally I can't be sure because I'm just guessing here.

Some info about my system:

Samsung X120 laptop
Ubuntu 10.04
amd64, 2 CPUs
ext4, /home/kvalo encrypted with ecryptfs
