I still get "Writing to drives is not supported" when I try to copy a file to a floppy.
I've greped for this error message but I can't find it anywhere. What exactly do you do to get it, and which program is it that tells you this?
I go to someplace where I can snap on a file and say "copy" then I go to the This Computer (was "My Computer" before I got rid of stupid Windows nomenclature) and snap on "Floppy Disk" and try "Paste." This is the way a windows system is supposed to work. Then I get the message you see above.
Yeah, I've heard this from others too. But I can't for the life of me find which program generates the message. I can't reproduce it on my system, and I've greped through every binary I have. I simply can't understand where it's coming from In any case, it's nothing to do with ACLs (which by the way isn't a new feature), it works well from the command line - or so I'm told by the people who see this error. My best guess is that it's some problem with either subfs or the way konqueror interacts with it. But since I can't find the error, I can't say for certain
