Re: [libreoffice-users] can't save a document

Hi :)
Is the Ubuntu side full-up?  If you open a folder to look at the documents inside then the menus at 
the top of the file-browser allow you to tick

View - "Status bar"

Then the status-bar at the bottom of the window shows how much empty space there is on the Ubuntu 
drive/partition that you are trying to save the file into.  It might be worth emptying the wastebin 
and if you open your email client then empty the wastebin in there to.  Also which folder are you 
trying to save into?  It should be fine in "Documents" or another suitable folder but some system 
folders are protected.  
Regards from
Tom :)

I am running LibreOffice on Ubuntu 11.10, Asus netbook, w/2g RAM. I use the
word processor extensively.

Frequently, when working on a document in Writer, I get a "cannot write to
disk" error. Subsequently, I cannot save in any other program. For example,
if I open a text editor and copy the text to a new file, I get the same
error message. This happens more often when operating on battery power than
when using A/C. If I do not reboot right away, I will get a total system
failure. If that happens before exiting Writer, the document I am working
on becomes corrupted.

This only happens when I am using LO in Ubuntu. This never happens in WinXP
or Win7. I haven't observed this trouble in any of the "live distros" I've
played with. Much to my dismay, I have noticed that Win can be a little
more forgiving of some hardware issues than Ubuntu. I don't have Win on
this netbook, but I never had any problems when it was installed.

How can I tell if this problem is related to LO, Ubuntu or hardware?

Thanks,

Jan
