Description Peter Åstrand cendio 2007-02-21 13:12:05 CET 
On my machine (maggie, with FC6), gedit does not work with Local Drive
Redirection, running unfsd on Windows. Problem verified both with FAT and NTFS.
Both reading and writing fails, even though all system calls and NFS calls
succeeds. (Saving actually works perfectly, but gedit still complains.) The
problem does not happen with Ossmans FC6 or his SLED10 image. 

Looking in the GNOME bugzilla, there are several bugs related to saving files,
for example http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=336738. One guess is that
gedit is unable to deal with the large inode numbers involved.

Haven't heard of this issue in many years. Assuming it got fixed.
