Hi all. Ever since I upgraded to 3.5.4 release on my poodle (pxa-250),
I've been getting some strange behaviour on the ext2 partition of my
sd card.

The sd card has three partitions, vfat, ext2 & swap. There's been more
& more non-standard file types showing up in place of existing files &
dirs that I can't get rid of:

Is this a sign that the card is going, or is there something else? Any
way I can delete/replace these without reformatting the partition?
