Running the latest 14 tde on the latest debian Jessie. Had a manual backup and in it i had two directories with their names being ##00bla1 and ##00bla2. When i plugged that drive thru a usb port, opening the partition with conqueror resulted in useless recursive openings of the two directories, nothing readable. After i opened the same partition with thunar file manager i was able to see both files starting with ##00, then i was able to graphically change the names of the directories (in thunar), and, after ## was removed from the very front of the name directory, the directories became visible and accessible in conqueror. should it be this way? d.

I can't reproduce that on my desktop system. Creating a folder named "##00bla1" and opening with konqueror doesn't seem to be problematic. Maybe the issue has to do with USB or USB file system (probably vfat ?!)

novfat, ext3. It was an old backup, about 3 years old, i guess had some other issues. it had remained untouched. i will pull the 4-5 files i need and forget it for a few more years, until the drive dies. that was before returning exclusively to rsync for backups.
