I wasn’t aware that I even had NFS on my machine ( Suse 11.0) I have found NFS client in Yast and I have uninstalled it. I have not used NFS and have no requirement to do so.
My problem is that a number of files and directories on my system cannot be “stated” for example
Suse-Raid:/home/martin # cd .VirtualBox
-bash: cd: .VirtualBox: Stale NFS file handle
This obviously makes them unusable. I have tried rebooting and running fsck, which finds no problems.
I guess this is just a flag on the files that has been set, does anybody know how to reset it ?

mpnorth: I have a similar issue on a file which has never been
exported/imported or touched via NFS at all. It’s on an ext2 filesystem
which is really just an encrypted file used as a loopback device. I’m
fiddling with it and if I find a solution I’ll post it here.
