Bug Description
Binary package hint: openoffice.org
Ubuntu Karmic - recent upgrade from Jaunty - also moved from Gnome to KDE
Open Office under KDE can't save files to my Maxtor NAS drive. If I navigate to a file, all the folder names are displayed as numbers rather than letters. If I try to create a new file on the the NAS drive, an empty file is created, and then Open Office displays a General IO error.
OpenOffice continues to work correctly if I switch the desktop to Gnome
--
A little more info - in the cases described above, I was connecting to the
NAS using the "Network / Samba Shares" option in the Open Office file
manager.
I also have the files system mounted using the following entry in fstab
/MAXTOR/GREENOCK /media/
credentials=
0 0
If I access the files via the mount point, I can update an existing file,
but "SaveAs" gives a General Input/Ouput error, and creates an empty file
with the correct name
--
ccheney - note
This appears to be an issue with kernel cifs mounting possibly with mand option, versus when using gnome and gvfs-fuse which does not use regular cifs method to access files. This does not appear to be KDE specific. Try using the cifs nobrl option to see if this helps.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Are you able to save the file somewhere on your local hard drive, and then copy the files over to your NAS afterwards? Or, is it any time you attempt to save files to your NAS?
