hi,
This fixes office 97 MSword error (disk full or write protected) when saving files on a vfat partition. MSword calls SetEndOfFile() which uses ftruncate() that, in Linux, cannot grow files in this filesystem.
Ah ! :-)))
I already suspected this to be the case. At least I already found due to some error code that some ftruncate() must have failed, and I think I thus called it an ftruncate problem.
Oh, and yes, that error condition was in the server, too, so it must have been this ftruncate.
And one more: In several cases, some guys reported that programs needed some "touch"ing before being able to save a file. What do you wanna bet that *this* is the problem that's now solved ?? :)
In short: a very important fix, I think.
I guess we can call you a Wine Master now ;)
