[Bug 445592] [NEW] Transmission Ext4 / data loss?

[Bryan Quigley]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: transmission

Torrent was about halfway done.   Computer crashed (from pulseaudio, I
think unrelated).  Now torrent is at 4 or megs (was at 150).

This is the log for the hard drive (from dmesg) on the next bootup:

Perhaps transmission needs to be take advantage of some ext4 features?
