But this Dialog does not have an option such as "Don't show this message again", so if it cannot change the permission for 100 files, it will show 100 Dialogs. It would be good if: 1) there was an option "Don't show this again" 2) all the errors were shown only once, when the copy/move has finished (as a big list of all errors) * Sorry for putting it in Dolphin section, I don't know where is the best place...

Dolphin 4.3.1-5.6.3. Endless flood of error dialogs (as soon as you open one, the next pops up). Waiting for the entire copy operating to finish and clicking ok (the only option) end it. This really should be done with a checkbox for "Don't show me this error again" or a button Ok to all.. or via an error without a dialog.

Some months ago I tried to introduce to Linux to my brother and I installed it Kubuntu Jaunty. He liked the look of KDE in general but he usually copies a lot of files from the filesystem to his backup partition and USB drives. Using it for a week was enough for him to ask me to remove the message and I couldn't do it. I had to install Nautilus and put an icon in his desktop. Now, Nautilus does not integrate with KDE at all and it tries to open files with the GNOME applications instead of the KDE ones so, explaining him why he had to use two different file managers (one to browse and one to copy) increased his "Linux sucks" impression. Using plasma notification or a "Don't show again" or "Ignore all" option would be a good solution but blocking Dolphin for such a stupid message is not the best solution, I think.

For me (using KDE 4.3.2), the dialog does not show up when copying to a VFAT filesystem, but it does when copying to NTFS. I traced it by making each instance of the string "Could not change permissions" distinctive; it turns out that the dialog originates on lines 276-277 of file_unix.cpp in kioslave: if ( mp && mp->testFileSystemFlag( KMountPoint::SupportsChmod ) ) warning(i18n("Could not change permissions for\n%1", dest)); I then went to look at KMountPoint::testFileSystemFlag (in kio, in the file kmountpoint.cpp), and found that it has a list of filesystem types, and if the filesystem is one of them, it sets a variable called isMsDos to true. If isMsDos is true, ::SupportsChmod returns false. Unfortunately, just detecting the filesystem type doesn't help here since NTFS-3g is a FUSE driver and consequently shows a filesystem type of fuseblk, which could include filesystems other than NTFS. Perhaps a better way to go would be to do a quick series of tests on a filesystem that's just been opened, and then store those results? This would make the system immune to problems when new filesystem types are added.

Doing tests sounds slow and complicated, how about we hide this warning for all fuseblk filesystems? I don't think it is actually that useful, to the point where it would be a problem to miss the warning in cases where the filesystem actually supports chmod?

The list of "no warnings" filesystems should probably include a few different variants actually; according to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/92099, an ntfs- 3g filesystem can show up as fuse, fuseblk, fuse.ntfs-3g, or fuseblk .ntfs-3g. Future kernels will probably be moving towards showing the .ntfs-3g subtype. Actually, when I mount an sshfs, it shows up as fuse.sshfs, so there is some support for showing subtypes in /etc/mtab and /proc/mounts already.

FWIW, just leave the first instance of the dialog open, let the copy process finish, and then click it away. If you do this while the copy process is still underway, then you'll get one dialog for each file until the process is finished.

I have a synology NAS with a shared folder mounted via Gigolo on KDE. Yes Gigolo because smb4k isn't fit for purpose (another story). Anyway, if you use the CMD line to copy a file to the .gvfs/shareblah folder there's no prompt. It's only the Dolphin GUI that has this message. So why is there no error message on the console vs Dolphin ???
