What does this weird directory listing in Linux mean?
I was clearing out some old sites on a CentOS server (MediaTemple DV) and stumbled upon this when doing an ls -lha :

All the file names are flashing and I'm not able to remove any of the files with rm -f
What does this mean? Drive/disk problems?
You've got a bit of filesystem corruption there. Take the machine offline as soon as possible and fsck that filesystem.
