This shows the benefits of 'xmode verbose' :) There's enough info in
that traceback to understand the problem:

This is the call that fails.  To confirm this is  the problem, try:

shutil.move('/tmp/foo','/fat32partition/foo')
With any valid /tmp/foo file and your actual path to your fat32
partition.

Yes, it fails in the same way:

In [5]: xmode verbose
Exception reporting mode: Verbose

In [6]: shutil.move('/tmp/tmp_Tzxny','/users/Massimo/')

which in turn tries to call utime():

         global os.utime = <built-in function utime>
         dst = 'prova.eps'
         st.st_atime = 1150101622
         st.st_mtime = 1150101622
      69     if hasattr(os, 'chmod'):
      70         os.chmod(dst, mode)

OSError: [Errno 1] Operation not permitted: 'prova.eps'

is somehow not OK for fat32 partitions, or because you don't have the
right permissions on your system.

My /etc/mtab line for the partition is as follows:
/dev/hda7 /users vfat rw,utf8,umask=000,gid=46 0 0

this should mean everyone has full permissions on the partition, isn't it?

At this point, it's not yet clear if this is a problem with backend_ps
in mpl or your permissions configuration.

5-minute googling lets me wonder if it's a problem with os.utime() not always playing nice with fat32 partitions... odd because on my previous debian sarge with the same configuration, it didn't complain.
