I have some "wierd" files and I thought it may be from a long string of 
system crashes (due to nvidia/xorg-x11 issues).

It seems whatever existed in thid directory at the time of the crash has 
gone over to the dark side.  

I looked at reiserfsck, but it needs this file system to be be 
unmounted.  This is a remote RAID-1 server, so not much luck there.

What's the recommended approach to recover/delete these?   I'm running 
the 2.6.8-r3 Gentoo kernel.
