Public bug reported:
https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/35404
Affects: gnome-volume-manager (Ubuntu)
Severity: Normal
Priority: (none set)
Status: Unconfirmed
Description:
I have a partition which is mounted as /home/data and is world
readable/writable. It's frequently close to being full, with only a few
hundred megabytes of storage free, because I store some large data sets there
for processing. My actual home directory is /home/lakin and has 12G available
...
Relavent lines from df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda9 19G 5.8G 12G 34% /
/dev/hda5 51G 48G 419M 100% /home/data
However, I get a notification everytime I login telling me:
"Low Disk Space
99% of the disk space on /home (/home/data) is in use"
This data directory is not used as a home partition for any user, and
thereby it being full has no adverse affects on running my gnome
desktop. Shouldn't the gnome-volume-manager do some basic checking to
ensure that the partition isn't critical to the function of the computer
before showing this warning message?
