View 5 Replies View RelatedI am 61 years old and brand new to Ubuntu. My son built a computer for me which I am using. I hated Windows so he installed Ubuntu 9.10 which I love. My son left for the Air Force Academy and when he left he told me and I was on my own so I am doing my best to learn. Everything was going fine but today I encountered a problem.
When I tried to empty my trash in the Evolution Mail program, I encountered this error message:
Error while Expunging folder.
Error storing '~/.evolution/mail/local/Sent (mbox)': Summary and folder mismatch, even after a sync
I googled the error and found this solution:
I first used Evolution File > Backup Settings. Then I went to my .evolution/mail/local and deleted all files that had an extension of:
.index
.cmeta
but NOT .data
When restarted it takes a few minutes to rebuild. Then I was able to successfully delete everything in my trash folder. I have looked and looked and I cannot find the .evolution/mail/local folder. How to get to it. Or perhaps am I using the wrong corrective action. If that is the case, then what should I do.
I still feel as though I should be posting in Beginer Talk but was told that general help could work as well.I am currently using ubuntu jaunty jackalope and completely unfamiliar.I am unable to download updates due to their not being enough free disk space.The sudo apt-get clean and autoclean commands do not free up any space? I have tried tinkering with ubuntu tweak and add remove programs as well but nothing coming.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a basic question regarding how to clean up linux disk space. I use "df" to check my disk and found out usage is 100%. SO I use "du -b | sort -r -n > tmp.txt" and found out that /var/spoon/clientmqueue/ has taken the biggest disk space. I deleted the file in that directory using "rm". But after that, I run "df" again, still got 100% usage.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've got a question on free disk space. I'm currently running CentOS 5.5 on in Xenserver virtual environment. We've had an issue with disk space. My question is as follows: - from a ssh connection i run df -h this gives the value of 90% used leaving me with 9GB. If I use system monitor via a VNC connection the free disk space value is 20GB free on the same volume. Which one is correct? I do use SNMP to monitor the same volume and should alert me when < 10% is free I know this works as I set the alert threshold to < 90% I get an alert.

I am using KDE4.5 in openSUSE11.2
I downloaded and installed k3b from the software center and remember seeing that after it was installed, an additional 180MB would be taken up. so the installation process took about 2-3 minutes after unpackaging or whatever it does. But when I went to uninstall it, it took like 2 seconds. Is there a way to clean up packages that hasn't been uninstalled all the way or haven't been used? Is that normal?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am on a windows 7 system trying to install linux fedora 15.
I am using Fedora 15 live image which I burned onto a DVD and booted. According to instructions I've found in a tutorial I go into the system tools and choose install to harddrive. I have previously shrunk the windows system drive to free up approx 200 GB of unallocated space. I did this through the
control panel >> administrative tools >> computer management >> windows disk manager.
While I try to install fedora on the harddrive I run into two problems.
1. I can't install it because it says "no free space available to create partition". it doesn't matter if I choose the auto partition option or the custom partition option.
Choosing the custom partitioning option I don't know what partitions I need to create. Terminology such as LVM and PV are all new to me.
The second problem is that I am after some random time ( it occurs in different time intervals) forced to re-login as a live user which kills the installation program and forces me to re-start the installation process
Anyone have clues to solve these problems?
I have read a couple of threads that deals with resize partion and then create new lvm partion.That is not what I want to do! I have resized my partion from 275 GB to 150 GB. the reason for this was hoping for more space to be able to create a normal partion with cfdisk but that does not seem to work.
I have free space, but how can I use it to create room for a new ordinary partion.when the default partion layout for fedora/centos is to fill the whole space up whether you use it or not?
Closest analogy I can compare what I want to, is like the `sync` command, which writes out all stuff in the disk buffers, freeing the buffers.Instead of disk buffers, I want to 'clean out' my RAM and SWAP of any/all junk that's accumulated in there over the time my PC has been up. I've long wondered about this, but never asked, though I recall searching around several times..When I first boot it cold and log in, the memory usage bar on my desktop is near zero, and the swap is empty. But after a week or 2 or 3 or more of uptime, and with Firefox always running with a dozen tabs or so at any given time, I end up with all the memory full or 'filled with cached stuff', and the swap space is filled to capacity.Curiousity: I blame Firefox for leaking memory, but even if that's still the case today (historically it was) can this all be blamed on Firefox? Or what-all causes this, besides Firefox- just..Everything?
Here's current stats:
Code:
sasha@reactor: uptime
21:21:42 up 30 days, 10:07, 3 users, load average: 0.02, 0.05, 0.01
sasha@reactor: free
total used free shared buffers cached

So, 3.8 of 4 Gib of RAM is occupied, and the 1 Gib swap space is jammed full 100%. This must slow things down to some degree, yes? I mean, the kernel does have to keep track of this, right?Of course closing all the applications doesn't make a difference (not an appreciable one anyhow) and the only way I have found to start fresh is to reboot.
