I'm running 32 bit Ubuntu Hardy 8.04. I had a Windows XP NTFS drive
mounted via Samba and gdalinfo was fine. Copied the same file to the
local ext3 partition and got the error. I'll be trying the same file
on a Slackware server in the next couple days.

Obviously a work around is to split the ecw file into tiles.
