           Summary: Nautilus crashes trying to copy >4GB file to msdos fs
           Product: Ubuntu
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: i386
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: nautilus
        AssignedTo: seb128 at ubuntu.com
        ReportedBy: erik at erik-n-andersen.dk
         QAContact: desktop-bugs at lists.ubuntu.com


Nautilus crashes and reloads when trying to move (Ctrl-C, Ctrl-V from one window
to another) a 9GB tar file to an msdosfs mounted external USB hd. Doing "cp
file.tar /media/usbhd/" exits after copying 4GB with the error (translated from
Danish) "Limit for file size exceeded".

Preferred behaviour would be for nautilus to catch this error and present it to
the user, instead of crashing.
