When I open a file in a directory that is not writeable I get

Opening output file: Permission denied, /path/to/file

At the same time the file is not loaded.

When I repeat the find-file command, the file is loaded fine the second time.

The functionality I would like is: open the file right away and maybe show a message that flymake can’t work but stay out of the way.

I already have set flymake-gui-warnings-enabled to nil which at least rids me of the annoying dialog box.

    you could configure flymake to not start syntax checking when loading the file (i always do that just to speed things up).

    (setq flymake-start-syntax-check-on-find-file nil)
