I've been away for a little while--at least, in that I haven't updated my build in a little while.
So I just did and am blown away that I can find no mention in flyspray or here on the forums of a new.. feature. I added it to FS (http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/6735).
Is no one else experiencing these symptoms?

And these are clean svn builds downloaded from builds.rockbox.org?
Someone mentioned strange spinups in the IRC channel recently, but that was with a patch, and they went away when he used a clean build.
Oddly enough, it should've been physically impossible for the patch he was using to cause such behaviour (it was a plugin and affected no core files) but without the patch the behaviour stopped, which suggested that somehow something else was going wrong with his compiling.
-
Yes Paul. Totally clean svn build.
-
Just making sure. I know that you know better, but in the case of that one person, the only patch he applied didn't affect core Rockbox at all. It was JUST a plugin, with no API changes or anything, yet when he used a clean build downloaded from the Rockbox site it didn't show the problem. His rockbox.ipod should've, technically, been a 'clean' one but for some strange reason it was behaving oddly.
Okay, next question: Have you verified in the debug menu that dircache is actually active? Sometimes even if you've turned it on, and it's scanned at boot, something will go wrong.
-
Yes I have.
And it's obvious dircache is on, because sometimes the hard drive actually won't spin up when I go browsing. Anyway, I suppose I should keep comments to the tracker, so... yeah, I posted there.
