    Hi all,

    I believe something of this nature has been discussed previously, but I
    don't know if it was ever resolved. I believe the original was
    something about actually writing too and removing files from a floppy
    or usb storage device.

    I can read, write, and remove items from either, but when trying to
    rename a file, copy & paste or cut & paste, I get the error!
    "Writing to drives is not supported"
    That happens to either device and I suspect it has something to do with
    the subfs system SuSE has incorporated. I have not been able to find
    anywhere in the system though, where this "information" window comes
    from when it fails. Another little item is that I can open a shell,
    move an item to rename it (mv /usb/name /usb/newname) and all things
    are right again. The problem goes away after doing this.

    Any thoughts?

    Thanks,
    Lee
