Comment 55 for bug 804936

Update 2: My current bugfix is the following: I've (kind of) disabled the autosave functionality: I've set autosafe_timeout in perferences.conf to a very high value (autosafe_timeout = 999999). Now it seems that I can safe my pages with Ctrl+S at any time without problems. As far as I've seen, the *.bak*~ files are not created anymore which might have caused the problem (I had multiple backup files there for one page, e.g. .bak1~ up to -.bak9~).
When I close the zim application window or switch to another page in the notebook, zim will save the last page by itself, so disabling autosave is working very well for me. Maybe it would be good if there was a general UI option to switch it off?
