Hello, I ran strace and this is what I'm getting from it when I change that setting: 1072:open("/home/evo/.xchat2/xchat.conf", O_RDONLY) = 6 9065:open("/home/evo/.xchat2/xchat.conf.new", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_TRUNC, 0600) = 10 9242:rename("/home/evo/.xchat2/xchat.conf.new", "/home/evo/.xchat2/xchat.conf") = 0 I guess it can't open the new file before saving it to xchat.conf, could you investigate why?
