So, in summary:
- Affects the default text editor
- Open for 3.5 years now (!!!)
- Over 100 comments...
- Gedit blames CIFS. CIFS (and VirtualBox) blames Gedit. From virtualbox.org:
Q: I get an error "Unexpected error: Text file busy." when trying to edit a
file.
A: When using gedit, this can happen on shared folders. This is a bug in
gedit, not VB. Use a different editor.
I'm working in a Big Organization with a CIO who's a Windows Lover. I've
used virtualization to get around SafeBoot and other Windows-only garbage. I
now have access to all the tools I know and love... *except* the text editor.
Ye gods!
Don't you want Ubuntu to integrate smoothly into a Windows-centric
environment? See Bug #1.
I agree with the many others who are stuck with this problem. This
bug needs to be upgraded to Importance: High.
