Bug Description
Hello,
My father who tries Kubuntu has worked two hours on a doc with OOo.calc. (From a liveCD)
By reflex and ignorance he saves his work in his /home and nothing tell him that the work will not be saved.
So, when he starts again Kubuntu he was disapointed. . .
I know, it's a stupid error. But Kubuntu (and more LiveCD) are for people who don't know Linux and for a lot of them they don't konw very much about computers.
I think that a caution message could be displayed if a user want to save his work in his /home from a LiveCD.
Ex :
"You are running Ubuntu from a LiveCD, you can't save your document in your /home.
Use a USB storage or an emplacement on a HD to save or you will lost your work. "
I think that my father is not the first person to experiment this. I know, he's got problem with computers, but I think he understand the power and the aim of the Open Source community. . . So he restart his job on OOo from the Kubuntu LiveCD. . . ;)
That's all, thank you and sorry if my English is bad. . . French guy inside.
