Description S. Burmeister 2008-03-08 11:10:30 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE 4.0.2)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
OS:                Linux

I use the "show all links on this website" feature to select some files and then download them. I pick my external-harddisk from the speedbar, which is mounted in /media and click ok. kget tells me that the folder I picked is not writeable, which wrong, since my user does have write permissions and kget from kde3 works without any issues.

This is still valid for 4.1 beta 2.

kget-kde4 says "directory is not writable" when trying to save to a directory under ntfs partition, but no problem when trying to save to the mount dir or a symlink to ntfs partition. ie. suppose
/ntfs/ mounts a ntfs partition
~/document/ is a symlink -> /ntfs/document/
then, /ntfs/ and ~/document/ are writable, but /ntfs/dir/ and ~/document/dir/ are not writable.

If I try a second time, then the previously not writable directory becomes writable.
