Description Richard Hartmann 2011-02-09 21:11:55 UTC
Version:           4.5 (using KDE 4.5.5) 
OS:                Linux

When any KDE program tries to write to disk and gets ENOSPC in return, this should be displayed to the user immediately.

Ideally, show a notification or even a global error message. This is a serious condition, especially when it happens in the background.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Not quite so evil:
1) Fill up disk
2) Try to write to disk, for example in ksnapshot
3) You get a generic error.

Very evil:
1) Fill up disk
2) Have ktorrent silently fail in the background

Actual Results:  
No data written to disk.

Expected Results:  
Big bold error message.

Is this still happening in recent versions of Plasma 5, like 5.19 or later?
