duplicated folder names of my documents, music, downloads, and some other folders in your home folder and they disappear, all data
Comment 2 Christoph Feck 2011-05-28 03:03:23 UTC 
This bug report lacks the required information to even understand what happened. Do you say the complete .kde folder disappeared? What did you do before and after the reboot? Did you use a clean shutdown or forced a reboot?

To me it sounds like a filesystem corruption, caused by unsafe settings of the ext4 journaling writeback mode, but without further information, this is hard to say.

Hi there, this bug has been identified to be related to nepomuk, the semantic searching system in prior versions of KDE. Please note that nepomuk has been replaced by Baloo. I'm going to close this bug due to the use of the new Baloo system. Please do file a new bug for frameworks-baloo if you happen to continue having issues with search.
