Hi all,

A few days days ago I tried to install some updates on my Lenovo G 505 laptop. The wallpaper suddenly disappeared along with the system tray and only the mouse cursor remained showing that it is waiting for something to get finished. I left it and returned to the computer after an hour and it was still waiting for something. I restarted it - but it was not an easy job. It turned out finally that / partion is full. I booted into safe mode and deleted lots of things from /tmp and /var/tmp but it was only a temporary measure. I do not see anything that could fill the 20 G / root partiton. This is an oS 13.2 laptop with KDE 4.14.5. Home is on a separate partiton.

Is this a default installation of 13.2? If so it's likely snapper snapshot policy not cleaning up old snapshots aggressively enough. What do you get for

# btrfs fi show # btrfs fi df /

Chris, these are what the commands return linux-ac2p:~ # btrfs fi show Label: none uuid: 9a4aa63f-cca0-4b76-ad37-d64c546d928a Total devices 1 FS bytes used 17.23GiB devid 1 size 20.00GiB used 20.00GiB path /dev/sda3 Btrfs v3.16.2+20141003 linux-ac2p:~ # btrfs fi df / Data, single: total=16.22GiB, used=16.09GiB System, DUP: total=8.00MiB, used=16.00KiB System, single: total=4.00MiB, used=0.00B Metadata, DUP: total=1.88GiB, used=1.14GiB Metadata, single: total=8.00MiB, used=0.00B GlobalReserve, single: total=400.00MiB, used=0.00B In the meantime I noticed that my very basic gnome environment remains usable, though it complains about low disk space of /. Maybe some KDE related problem is here? Albert -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
