Title:
  spurrious EXT4 errors remount /home read-only

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

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.
