this DV6000 is running 11.4 as it only holds 2gig memory.
root is filling up there was once 4gig free now down to 1.5 gig end of last year and now only 1.3 gig.
Where do I look for the problem??
I always start in /var/log/, particularly in /var/log/journal/ if it exists. I haven't booted 11.4 in a very long time, and don't remember when openSUSE adopted a systemd journal option. IIRC, full-on systemd happened around 12.3, but 12.1 is where it may have surfaced, maybe sooner. Antique logs and caches certainly aren't needed. Check the /var/cache/zypp/packages/ tree. How many kernels are installed? An installation that old ought to be fine with only one, two at the most. Is old stuff accumulating in /tmp/? -- Evolution as taught in public schools, like religion, is based on faith, not on science. Team OS/2 ** Reg. Linux User #211409 ** a11y rocks!
