[comp.protocols.appletalk] AUFS View by PROBLEM...

Is this an AUFS bug?

Scenario:
   0. Folder contents are displayed by name...
   1. View a folder by icon (Select "View/by Icon").
   2. Unmount AUFS volume.
   3. Mount AUFS volume again.
   4. Open Folder.

Folder contents are displayed *BY NAME* (not icon as expected!).  
Pull down "View" menu but "by Small Icon" is checked (not "by Name" as
expected)!  It doesn't make sense!

This does NOT affect all folders - seemingly only those nested at least
3 levels deep or more with several files/folder in them:

	"AUFS Volume:Folder1:Folder2"

It's the contents of Folder2 that are displayed wrongly.

There are 2 things wrong:

	Why didn't the "View/by Icon" stick?
	How come it views by name but checks "by small icon"?

Has anyone experienced this exasperating problem and has anyone any
solution?
