@Pedro

1. the specific steps or actions you took that caused you to encounter the problem,
a) Places>Connect to server
b) Enter valid FTP server specifications
c) Desktop link is created automatically
d) Create document in Open Office or gedit
e) Save file directly to FTP server [Cannot find FTP from save menu]
f) Tried dragging and dropping FTP to the quick-save (favorites) menu

2. the behavior you expected, and
a) I expected the servers I am connected to to be in the list of disks (since they are, in fact directories and should be represented as such in the GUI)
b) I expected to be able to drag and drop a link to a server into the quick-save/favorites menu

3. the behavior you actually encountered (in as much detail as possible).
a) FTP server was not added to the list
b) Open office crashed, gedit did not, either way, the file is still not able to be saved directly to FTP

Workaround: Save to local disk, drag file to ftp server. (This is a workaround, but if I am not able to write to disks it does not help much)

Hope This Helps
