I am using kernel 2.4 and ext3 fs on all partitions. I recently suffered a power outage while working on some documents. Some of them had previously been saved other had not. In either case none of the new data was restored. I am also finding other strange disapearrances like bookmarks and panel applets. My understanding of the ext3 fs is that these documents should have been restored regardless of there state. The document windows popped up but all changes were lost. This leads me to believe that either I am not understanding what I am reading about ext3 and journaled file systems in general, something is not working or is misconfigured or there is a recovery procedure that I am unaware of. Other than that it is definitely faster than using ext2. Can someone set me straight on this or tell me what to check/test to see if it is operating correctly? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
