Summary: Does not seem to save/restore games again

Initial Comment:
 Version:
ScummVM 0.8.2 (Jun 16 2006 18:41:07)
Features compiled in: Vorbis FLAC MP3 ALSA zLib MPEG2
FluidSynth

Game language: English (GB)
Game version: CD
Platform: Linux
Compiler: gcc

When I save a game in a slot, it doesn't give me any
error or so. But when I attempt to restore the game
from the slot I first realize that the name that I
written in that slot has dissappeared (or I find wierd
characters in other slots that I did not save in).
Also I get messages like this:

Can't read from file 'SKY-VM.000'

When I attempt to restore from autosave I get the same
error but for file 'SKY-VM-CD.ASD'

I thought that maybe I got
I also got that error with version 0.8.0 (so I upgraded
to 0.8.2).

Also I tried another game called Queen of Amazon,
and the save/restore game worked just fine.

So I think this has to be a problem with 'Beneath a Steel
Sky' game.

I submit a report earlier, and I was answered that I
must check that the savepath should be to a writeable
directory, I checked and found that it is writeable indeed.

Here's the savepath in my .scummvmrc :

savepath=/home/ant1/.scummvm

and it is a writeable directory, also it did contain
the files:
SKY-VM.000 SKY-VM-CD.ASD SKY-VM.SAV
queen.asd queen.s00 queen.s01 queen.s02

I tried to change the savepath to /home/ant1 , but I
still get the same problem.

The reason I am submitting a new report is that the
report I previously submitted has been closed.
