** Description changed: Binary package hint: xorg Hi. I opened this thread in Ubuntu forums with no luck at all. Hope someone can give me a clue of what happens. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1683746 Recently, gnome has been warning me about low disk space, always less than 1.5GiGs. The problem is, baobab (disk usage analyzer) tells me that there are something like 50GiG free. I am sure that I have the free space ( I can write big files ) but the system keeps reporting low disk space. Even Code: df -h looks wrong: Code: Filesystem Type Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/sda1 ext4 221G 209G 638M 100% / none devtmpfs 2.0G 272K 2.0G 1% /dev none tmpfs 2.0G 1.9M 2.0G 1% /dev/shm none tmpfs 2.0G 328K 2.0G 1% /var/run none tmpfs 2.0G 0 2.0G 0% /var/lock none debugfs 221G 209G 638M 100% /var/lib/ureadahead/debugfs Wandering in some other thread, someone pointed out that some program may be deleting files ... but not closing them, and the offending program can be fount with Code: sudo lsof -s | grep DEL | sort -rnk 7,7 ,which gives a wall of results like these Code: Xorg 1334 root DEL REG 0,4 8573 /drm mm object Xorg 1334 root DEL REG 0,4 8572 /drm mm object Xorg 1334 root DEL REG 0,4 8560 /drm mm object Xorg 1334 root DEL REG 0,4 8559 /drm mm object Xorg 1334 root DEL REG 0,4 8558 /drm mm object Xorg 1334 root DEL REG 0,4 8557 /drm mm object Xorg 1334 root DEL REG 0,4 8556 /drm mm object Perhaps Xorg is having a very bad behavior?? What can I do to force it close the files , or whatever else that can give me back the hard disk space ... working is unpractical since most applications (gnome apps) think that there is no space left on the device. My sistem is Ubuntu 10.10 64bit, with all the upgrades until today (proposed updates enabled) XORG INFO X.Org X Server 1.9.0 Release Date: 2010-08-20 X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0 Thanks in advance.
