file browser crash

Hi I have installed e2pfsprogs and a 64 GB ext4 formatted SD card containing about 20GB music, corrected the mount-sd.sh script and restarted trackerd, and everything seems to work.

Except for the File browser.

Whenever I try to start the File browser, I get a cover saying Loading, and after a short time it just exits.

I do believe the problem is associated with either the amount of folders or files on the card, as I have tried with an almost empty 32 GB SD with Ext4, without any problems.

Edit:

Some further test has shown that I can start file browser from command line, but not from GUI.

Any idea why ?

OK, I have tested some more.

I changed the 64GB card with a 32 GB card, and the file browser worked flawlessly both when starting from the gui and the cli.

I changed it back again, and again the file browser worked flawlessly both when starting from the gui and the cli!

I do not understand it, but the problem has gone.
