Here's a suggestion (keeping in mind that I'm not a developer, programmer or anything alike - I'm just an "advanced user"): What about a cron job that would run a script a regular interval (let's say each hour), and delete any oldest content of the .xsession-errors file that exceeds any reasonable amount of files pace (out of nowhere, I would say 10MB - that's already a pretty heavy log!).
Again, my reasoning is that I prefer to have a functional and healthy system with a partial error-log file than a complete error-log file that I won't be able to access because it has rendered the system unusable... Of course, there may some more elegant solution... Anyway, thanks for helping. -- .xsession_errors file grows out of control & saturates disk space https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/60448 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
