["Christopher M. Penalver" <christopher.m.penalver@xxxxxxxxx>]

Martin-Éric Racine, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't
been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an
issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development
release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.13-rc5

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

Title:
  spurrious EXT4 errors remount /home read-only

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Since a couple of days, something seems to trigger spurrious EXT4
  errors that result in /home being re-mounted read-only. The user is
  not warned about this by the desktop environment; instead,
  applications silently fail to save documents, which obviously results
  in several hours of work being lost.

  I'd appreciate help on tracking the cause of these EXT4 errors and on
  fixing them.

  It might also be a good idead for GTK2, GVFS or some other desktop
  component to produce some kind of LOUD and ANNOYING error message in
  the notification area to alert the user, in the event that the kernel
  resorts to re-monting the filesystem to read-only. The warning should
  point the user to locally-accessible documentation for tracking and
  fixing the issue, without requiring network access to some external
  documentation.
