Hey guys,
whats the best program to view my disk usage. I m searching a GUI for the "df" program. That would be perfect. And it shouldnt be a gnome/kde program. I didnt find anything with google =(

thanks for your help,
mika

KDE comes with the info center ( under system ). It has two options, the one you probably want is storage devices. Theres also KDirStat for more info.

Sorry read shouldnt as should. ( apostrophes are important : ) )

Try XDiskUsage should do everthing you need.

=(
Any other program you could suggest?

Sure does .... here at least.

All you need to do is click one of the mountpoints,
and in the stats it displays there's a section called

FREE :}

hm..yeah. but if it takes half an hour to read the disk.. =( its faster to type "df -h"

It's faster to use the commandline in
99% of the times mate, you've asked
for a graphical interface ;)

Heres everything you need and alot more:
http://gkrellm.net
Its incredible. Gkrellm.

Tinkster · 05-13-2004, 08:36 PM

On my system gkrellm is the third chubbiest
application, right after X and Mozilla, fatter
than my windowmanager :}

Sometimes I wonder whether it makes ANY
sense at all ... 6.6MB memory usage for that
info? ;)

Cheers,
Tink
