(Get the code!)
In reply to zzarko's comment above (#30), I would like to mitigate.
I have found that things have improved in 11.04 if the server you are connecting to is a MS-Windows machine: Nautilus correctly reports free space and Libre Office doesn't fail writing to those servers anymore. For that kind of network shares, the problem is solved then.
However, when using gvfs to connect to a NAS that is a few years old and that is runing linux with samba, I still have the "zero byte free" issue. This really affects usability since for instance LibreOffice can't save to that share (general failure error), and other apps also have problems. So no improvement in that case. The workaround is then to use the regular mount -t cifs.
Tu sum up, with 11.04 you might be affected by this bug or not depending on the network target you are trying to reach.
