I have started to add to the bug report what I find and what jogs my memory. The problem is not evident on OSX with LO 3.4.0 or on Suse 11.0 + LO 3.3.2 using konqueror. It is evident with Suse 11.3 + LO 3.?? (have to check again) with Dolphin. There is an error message when I save as from LO, I will check again tomorrow when I boot my draftsman off his machine, something along the lines of "the file can only be saved to a local drive". From recollection last time it happened when Linux distros went from the smb driver to the cifs driver. Konqueror stayed with the SMB code and Dolphin may have changed. There was some sort of issue. I mount most of my smb storage (Nas units) at login so the storage share appears in the local file system.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: General input/output error when saving to network drive
Hi :) The 11.04 uses some very new systems but they 'shouldn't' affect networking. They probably do but they shouldn't. Nautilus is not great at handling network shares. Something like Dolphin or even Thunar might be worth installing alongside Nautilus because they are better file-browsers for networked folders. The default Samba & smb configurations tend to be a bit wonky in all releases of Ubuntu. Mostly i have found it sets the "workgroup" name wrongly. I think the configuration files are in /etc/Samba ?? However, since you were able to save a text-file to the required folder over the network none of that sounds like it's a problem on your system :) Ubuntu 10.04 LTS or 10.10 are worth trying on the older machine or even as a dual-boot install alongside your current install f you have a spare 15Gb free-space on yor main machine. Trying to install Ubuntu 10.04 or 10.10 as a dual-boot on your old machine is a better plan before risking messing up your main machine.

With ubuntu it is smart to register at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu http://www.ubuntuforums.com and for all gnu&linux distros register at http://www.linuxquestions.org For Ubuntu its worth getting all the multimedia working by working through this guide https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu I find that installing mplayer and vlc brings in lots of extra codecs but i tend to use Xbmc most of the time and only occasionally use Vlc but i have found that i keep changing my mind about which are my favourites.

The western digital software allows share to be either public or private on the drive. I have the shares set to public so that they are accessible to everyone in the house. The other 3 computers on the network (1 windows xp, 1 windows 7, 1 Ubuntu 10.04 on mac G4) can fully access files via LO. Again, thanks for any insights. -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/General-input-output-error-when-saving-to-network-drive-tp3061786p3064206.html Sent from the Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to users+h...@global.libreoffice.org In case of problems unsubscribing, write to postmas...@documentfoundation.org Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to users+h...@global.libreoffice.org In case of problems unsubscribing, write to postmas...@documentfoundation.org Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
[libreoffice-users] Re: General input/output error when saving to network drive
Thanks for the quick replies. In response to the above posts: 1) I just checked the Package Manager for LO, I went to the status button, scrolled down to the LO packages, and everything looked ok. The Libreoffice-filter-mobiledev and Libreoffice-report-builder-bin did not have the "package supported" icon listed, but nothing was listed as broken. I am a bit new to Ubuntu and LO, so I am not sure if there are further checks to do. However earlier I removed LO, and tired to install OOo. Interestingly trying to install OOo in Ubuntu reinstalled LO instead. Anyway. I still had the same problem. 2) I was able to open save text files to the network share using Text Editor with no problem. 3) As for the drive, it is connected to a router via ethernet (It is the MyBook Live drive).
