/home disk quota
 

I can't seem to find how to check this. i keep getting a warning that my /home has 0bytes left and to clear up some files. i open "disk usage analyzer" and i see basically

name usage size

home 100% 84.9GB
user 100% 84.9GB
.tbird 1.7% 1.5GB
.local 0.2


nothing below thunderbird is higher than 0.2...is there a quota command that i have to set it to higher number? im using maybe 2gb. which the only thing that makes sense is if my default quota is 2gb


edit:

repquota /home
repquota: Mountpoint (or device) /home not found or has no quota enabled.
repquota: Not all specified mountpoints are using quota.

What is the output of:

and

du -shx /home/*
85G /home/iceman
du: cannot read directory `/home/lost+found': Permission denied
16K /home/lost+found


Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/vg_livedvd-lv_root
50G 9.2G 40G 19% /
tmpfs 3.9G 356K 3.9G 1% /dev/shm
/dev/sdb1 485M 66M 394M 15% /boot
/dev/mapper/vg_livedvd-lv_home
90G 86G 0 100% /hom

Definitely no quota in effect, that drive is full.

How about

Found this command, and found out .xsession-errors is 85GB!!!! what the hell, i don't think deleting it will solve the problem for long.

[iceman@physical ~]$ find /home -type f -size +10000 -exec ls -lh {} \; | awk '{print $5 ": " $NF}'
85G: /home/iceman/.xsession-errors
15M: Files/Content.IE5/498I191T/wine_gecko-1.4-x86_64[0]

25M: /home/iceman/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32/gecko/1.4/wine_gecko/xul.dll
find: `/home/lost+found': Permission denied
[iceman@physical ~]$

I really doesn't have any info that i care too much about, how can i stop this from happening??

The head output just looks like normal setup. What about a tail?

damn i deleted it already. but my disk still says its at 100%

The file was still open when you deleted it, which means you only deleted the reference to the file, not the actual file. The space won't be freed until you stop the process that still has the file open, easiest way is to just reboot.

what suicidaleggroll said, and Empty the rubbish bin/trash.
