Hi Andras,

I can understand getting mad about a bug that just doesn't go away (or at 
least, it seems so)

/media/sda7 is a partition of my sata drive, mounted on /dev/sda7
My home directory is on the main partition, but with the following simlink
webdev -> /media/sda7/webdev/

But I also did the following test, which - in my opinion - shows it has 
nothing to do with the filesystem. 

I tried to do a test as clean as possible. No projects, no nothing

- I opened a session with an almost unused useraccount. 
- removed .kde/share/config/quantarc
- removed .kde/share/apps/quanta/
- started quanta
- type some random stuff in the editor (dont save!)
- click on the 'new' button.
- type some random stuff in the editor (dont save!)
- wait a 5 minutes

See quantarc1.gz to see what happened. Both backedup and autosaved list 
already have multiple entries.

- close quanta (do not save anything)

quantarc2.gz shows the result after closure. the list of backedup files is now 
empty, but the autosaved list is not.

If these exact steps dont give the same result, I maybe need to try to 
reinstall quanta.

grtz,

Chris
