My albums keep grow out of space, so I have to give them a seperate file system. But in *nix, each file system comes with a lost+found directory. G1 doesn't like this and thinks it is an invalid album, showing a reminder to remove it each time the admin logs into the start page.

I realize that there may be workarounds to this behaviour - not quite a problem, but is there a way to let Gallery accept some system directories that doesn't contain album data?

The following information is required to get an answer:
Get this information from the PHP diagnostic (in the configuration wizard).
Gallery URL (optional but very useful): http://solid77.doodle22.com/nature?newlang=en_US
Gallery version: 1.5.2pl2
Apache version: 2.0.50
PHP version (don't just say PHP 4, please): 4.3.8
Graphics Toolkit: NetPBM
Operating system: Linux
Web browser/version (if applicable): Netscape 7.2/8.0, Firefox 1.5, IE6

Hello,

interesting point.
I just made a fix for 1.6, but i will only be able to make a fix for the 1.5.x series at the weekend.

Thanks for reporting,

Jens
