           Summary: ENOSPC is silently ignored
           Product: kde
           Version: 4.5
          Platform: Debian unstable
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: richih-kde at richih.org


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.
