Bug
Alejando Dubrovsky's fix for sshfs solved the gedit problem for me. It
seems pretty silly that the gedit devs would place a restriction on you
that the filesystem/os should handle.

I found a work-around that works for me (for files on a mounted smb share, with
gedit 2.22.1)
Its a plugin that can be found here: http://chrisnicholls.ca/code/gedit-plugins/
It moves the original file to a temp directory and then saves the file.
DISCLAIMER:
I did not write the plugin, just foun
I think there are two different bugs overlapping in this ticket.
Over sshfs, gedit and anjuta (on gutsy and hardy), fail to save and display a
message with something like 'You cannot save ...'. The problem and the message
go away if the remote filesystem is mounted with sshfs -o uid=$UID. Thi
I'm back... I've posted my latest related Hardy results here:

The issue STILL exists in Hardy - just like it occured in Gutsy.

Unfortunately I am getting a lot more experience with this bug. I think
the following points summarize the factors the combine to produce this
bug:
1. the network share must reside on a Windows file server (or maybe another
non-Unix-type file system).
2. the network file sharing protocol is cifs
I think forking gedit is a little overboard. I am sure that a simple
patch is all that is needed, and could be provided for those of us who
need a resolution before the gedit dev's get around to fixing this.
I even think that a gedit plugin could probably be written to provide
the same functionali

Peter Wuertz has made some good suggestions. Why haven't they been
considered?
Peter said:
(a) if backup enabled:
- copy, not move the original file to a backup file
- reset file pointer, overwrite the original file in-place

This particular bug, at least on Ubuntu Hardy beta, does prevent saving
files. Under cifs on Gutsy, it was reported that files could be save
after clearing the error message and retrying (maybe more than once).
Under Hardy I can't make that work.

Please note the similarities with bug #125887.
Same message. Happens only on alien filesystems.
125887 does not prevent saving files, though.
Would this problem happen on FAT32 too?
Wouldn't it be a time saver to analyze both problems at the same time.
