Hi Michael. Thanks for taking your time to answer to it. I don't have on my side all the answers (except for the 8Go because of MP3 files), but you're right at 100%. I was called after the problem, and not before, but root is a bad idea, unless you know what you are doing, and precisely doing. The fact is that I found some missing files, but there will be others, for sure. This is not the end of the problem. Thanks for your explanation about the missing files, I am using Unix for more than 10 years (even if not Linux), and never seen that before. But if I can remember, none of us normal engineers working in the company knew the root password ;-) Anyway, I will try to work on it more, and try to understand what happened. Maybe I will have some more news from the file-roller mailing list. I think that the "tar -xvf" command line should not has posed the same problem, because it does not do a tar -tvf before extracting ... thing that the GUI one does....and did ! But the real truth is : Don't use root unless you know exactly what you are doing, and can control it. Thanks for your time, Michael, and sorry for my poor English.
