This is a common problem. If this is a box you're running KDE on I'd suggest the freespacenotifier package. If this is a server (or doesn't run KDE) then I'd suggest configuring the box such that you'll get email output from cron, and then make a cronjob that outputs text only when the free space left on filesystems reaches the desired "warning" threshold. I'm about to set up the same thing because there's a box I help administer that also regularly runs into this problem. :-/ -- Chris -- Chris Knadle [email protected] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
