Hello,
I am facing strange problems with running ls on my home directory. I issue
ls, it sits and waits around for 2-5 minutes before it responds. The same
happens when I try to do any file operations with other applications (like
attaching something to my email). Its almost as if it is timing out for
something. This does not happen anywhere else down the directory tree.
To find out what was going wrong, I issued strace ls, which ran immediately.
What do I check ?

Hey,
I had similar issue, but /home was a different HDD. If this is your
case, is it possible the drive is failing? You can try shutting down to
single user mode and running the full 'fsck' routine as well. If it is
not a corruption issue, check your path to make sure you are in fact
running the 'proper' ls (as in NOT a rootkit or something...).
