Description Thomas Axelsson 2011-06-17 18:24:49 UTC

Version:           2.4.1 (using KDE 4.6.4) 
OS:                FreeBSD

Using the latest Amarok I've noticed that it doesn't update the file listing of a folder using a NFS mount. It is solved by restarting Amarok. It does work on other folder on the disks.

I noticed that Amarok uses KDirModel, and other programs I use that implement that model (like Krusader) also doesn't update the NFS mount when new files are added or moved. It could be a KDE-specific issue, but it could also be my configuration... though, i start here :)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
* Mount a folder with NFS.
* Open the file browser in Amarok and browse to the nfs-mounted folder
* Copy new contents to the folder.. 


Actual Results:  
No new folders or files are added to the file listing view in Amarok

Expected Results:  
Updates should be shown as data are added or remove

I think this is just not implemented for your Platform/filesystem type combination. IMO KDirModel uses Linux-specific filesystem modification wather on Linux, I don't know about FreeBSD.
