hey there,


I've got the same log line but a more annoying problem also, in the
middle of nowhere my ecryptfs gets hot unmounted which trashes the whole
session, that looks than like this:

the problem is quite annoying, sometimes i just reboot the whole system,
sometimes i open a terminal and do a ecryptfs-mount-private and then
have a half working system (cause any program needs to cd out and back
in my home directory) and do a complete restart of the session (or even
a reboot) after i saved my work...

thanks for any help you can provide
