Re: Diagnostic advice: How to find; what filled up a 27% of 13.3 Gb drive overnite!
Hello John,
I would start looking at /tmp, then migrate to /var/log then, and this is
totally off the wall, in ~/.kde . . . Friend of mine just released nearly 2GB
of room in a file called something like ~/.kde/dev_null . . . We still don't
know how/what the deal was . . .
Best o luck to you.
