Forget my last comment #14 - it still fails with LibreOffice 3.4.3 on Natty!
To summarize: if I want to store a new document to an authenticated samba share then 3.4.3 show a dialog saying something with "I/O error". When started in a terminal then the following message appears together with the dialog: (soffice:4588): Gtk-WARNING **: Operation not supported by backend The share is mounted in ~/.gvfs/sharename/ but its path is always replaced by smb://synology.local/sharename/ which I guess is a problem for LibreOffice. I tried creating various links and *.desktop files to the share or its subdirectories - no luck yet. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/705774 Title: LibreOffice - Gnome/GVFS integration Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Binary package hint: libreoffice You need a mounted network share Create a new document (with writer or Calc).
