Created attachment 95185 [details] Screenshot of error The progress bar should clearly not be anywhere near done. This actually happens after the first few but I didnt get around to making a screenshot of it until the 100th or so file.
Does this happen even when you copy from a non-ntfs partition? I just tried copying /usr/lib to ~/newdir, and i didn't see this.
Also, i think we progress according to size, not file-count, so maybe you had a very large file first, or perhaps the file-size handling on NTFS is buggy.
Created attachment 95202 [details] Screenshot of progress bar from local harddrive to local harddrive Here is a screenshot produced by copying a folder by right clicking it, hitting copy, then going up 1 level and pasting it. Also note that the folder has 170 items, ranging from the largest of 440mb, down to the smallest of 512k, with a total of 8.2GB worth of files. The average filesize is around 60mb. Partition is ext3.
I believe this has been fixed in recent versions of gnome-vfs. Reopen if you see this in rawhide/FC6.
