way to view disk space in kde 3.2?
 
What a dumb question but how the heck to I view disk space in kde 3.2? I'm used to winXP and seeing it in My Computer, is there an equivalent in linux? or do I have to type in some console command or something? thanks!

Welcome to LQ!

The only dumb question is the one that doesn't get answered.

I'm a cli kind of guy...

df - report filesystem disk space usage

Open a shell with that icon that looks like a monitor with a shell overlaid and issue
$ df -h
and get something that looks like
Code:
bash-2.05b$ df -h
Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/hdc6            957M  693M  265M  73% /
/dev/hdc1              79M  34M  45M  44% /boot
/dev/hdc2              49G  3.7G  45G  8% /home
/dev/hdc3            4.7G  2.0G  2.8G  41% /usr
/dev/hdc5            1.9G  60M  1.9G  4% /var
/dev/hdc7            1.4G  33M  1.3G  3% /tmp
/dev/hda7              14G  8.7M  14G  1% /DATA_FAT32
/dev/hda8            4.7G  4.0K  4.7G  1% /TEMP_FAT32
that...

and if u want the gui answer :) , you could view it with a prgram called kdiskfree (kdf) its in kde 3.2

Main menu button -> System Tools -> More System Tools -> KDisk Free
although what Chinaman suggested will give you more information.

What is the Gnome version of KDisk Free?
 
I'll probably just use the cli option here, but I've never found the Gnome version of KDisk Free. Is there one? I assume there is, because everything seems to be hiding in Linux - you just have to find it. Thanks! tcurt
