Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gvfs-fuse
This is a major problem since it prevents any operation that wants to store to the filesystem, including /tmp. gvfs seems to have decided that one of my network drives is in my root partition. That makes it think the root partition is full. (it isn't, really.) A backup, made with Simple Backup, is in /mnt/mediavault/backup /computer-backup-filename.ful . That dir and backup now show up no matter what. I can't umount the partition, even using -f. I moved the backup out of that dir, and it still lists as being in that location, although it no longer is. In desperation, I tried to remove ~/.gvfs, hoping that would straighten gvfs out, but it won't let me since the resource is busy. I'm running, 8.04. gvfs-fuse 0.2.3-0ubuntu5 This is similar to, but not the same as these bugs: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/217389 "root partition usage reaches 100% without reason." In that case extra backup files weren't noticed and could be removed once they were. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-utils/+bug/211789 "disk usage analyzer shows twice disk capacity" Deselecting gvfs-fuse-daemon and rebooting did not solve the problem for me. Also, this bug is said to be "fixed upstream" but whatever is causing my problem is not fixed :( How can I wake gvfs up to the fact that 2.2GB are NOT on my root partition, but somewhere else entirely?! ** Affects: gvfs (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- gvfs reports root partition 100% full https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/227753 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gvfs in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
