Hi Robert, sorry to hear about your data loss: > I've been using OpenOffice 2.4 for several years with the same NAT, the same > NFS-setup, the same OS and the same odt-files - and I have never had dataloss.
It is worth pointing out that this (missing fsync) is -exactly- the same in the OpenOffice code, so ... while it's absence might well be the cause of your grief, it's not different to what you had before. GregKH managed to 3/4 persuade me that we should just call fsync() wherever and risk the wrath, frustration etc. of people blaming the kernel /file-system bugs for ext2, ext3 etc. and to some extent ext4/btrfs on us. I'm inclined to do that I guess - and skip the fstab parsing etc. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/817326 Title: [Upstream] Previously-saved LibreOffice document lost by power outage (became 0 bytes long) - LibreOffice should call fsync To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/df-libreoffice/+bug/817326/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
