Continuing from the temp site:

Can somebody tell me why a file notification on a root dir of a USB memory stick causes endless amounts of notifications, when the end user is doing nothing on his computer ? And how to get rid of that ?

@colinwenzel
Can you test HyperBench (from os4depot) with both the old DOS library 53.58 (21.4.10) and your new beta library and USB memory sticks, if you can reproduce the problem with either or both of the DOS lib versions ? So we can narrow down any possibilities.

I used a NEC based USB card on my A1SE without problems(simply have to disable the kickstart files that uses the A1SE internal usb chip)...if you can found one you can try it yourself :)

All PCI slots are used already in my computer. Don't know how hard it's to find such card and I'm waiting for X1000 anyway.

Just popping in

I have a test program I used during development to test the notification system, it is now here...

http://members.westnet.com.au/colinwenzel/notify_test_program.lha

Start it in a shell with the destination path to monitor
as the argument, it will start three types of notifications and report when any events occured that trigger a notification.

Let me know what happens for you...

As i tester who report that problem to TSK, i will then just write results here:
I get your programm, unpack, and just run from shell:

FS HOOK Notification started for 'KINGSTON:' as 'KINGSTON:'
FS SIGNAL Notification started for 'KINGSTON:' as 'KINGSTON:'
FS MESSAGE Notification started for 'KINGSTON:' as 'KINGSTON:'

You have to copy files to your mem stick in another Shell to see notifications displayed. But because you don't get more output it means the original problem is in HyperBench itself. Thanks ! (Last time I checked the code I couldn't find any reason to this problem but it must be somewhere. Also I'm wondering why it doesn't happen on my system.)

Oh those bugs, which are hard to find.
