Since last boot, I've got this strange symptom. Filesystem is

Attempt to list with ls gives:
/usr/bin/ls: cannot access '/home/nbecker/./.bash_history': No such file
or directory
I think this means there is a directory entry, but the file doesn't exist?
Any suggestion to most reliably repair the damage? I don't care about
losing the content of this file.
I assume you're executing the commands as yourself. If you "su -" and
become root do
you see any difference?
