Same thing here on raring.

shankao@maldita:~/www/aftertime$ sudo sysctl fs.inotify.max_user_watches
fs.inotify.max_user_watches = 8192

And it affects other programs of the system (i.e. tail reverts to
polling).

I suggest to either increase the value automatically when installing
ubuntuone to accomodate its requirements, decrease these requirements
or, at least, notify the users somehow of the situation and the
workarounds that they can try.
