folders not seen my picture folder

I copied my old Win2k My Pictures folder to a Linux Mandriva server running samba. From a Win2k machine, I can see the My Pictures folder on the samba machine and see all the sub folders within it. From my Vista machine, I can see the My Pictures folder, but NONE of the subfolders within the My Pictures folder on the samba box.
Anyone know how to fix this? I assume this is some sort of My Pictures behavior on Vista, but not sure.

I am having the same kind of problem. It seems that Vista's Photo Gallery only finds pictures incide c:\users\xxxxx\pictures. I am trying to add pictures from d:\data\pictures\photos, where I save my pictures, and the picutres never show up.

If the ACLs on the other partition were set by XP then Vista is probably going to ignore them.

Well, technically the ACL is set by samba. I could ask a lot of questions about why the Win2k machine (which did NOT BTW set the ACL for these folders [it was a different Win2k machine]) can see these folders and Vista can't, but I will just ask:
Do you have any suggestion how to fix it? How can I get Vista to see these folders?
