Re: kopete and hebrew
Diego, thanks for your explanation. Here is what I have: locale LANG=en_US LC_CTYPE=en_US LC_NUMERIC=en_US LC_TIME=en_US LC_COLLATE=en_US LC_MONETARY=en_US LC_MESSAGES=en_US LC_PAPER=en_US LC_NAME=en_US LC_ADDRESS=en_US LC_TELEPHONE=en_US LC_MEASUREMENT=en_US LC_IDENTIFICATION=en_US LC_ALL=en_US In my case, I use kopete. The other side is using windows with the web client goicq.com. Choose cp-1255, as it has a larger range of Hebrew support, if it's possible. Now, I have talked with the Kopete developers a few years ago and they explained to me why ICQ gives us so much troubles. It seems that when a message is sent in ICQ one of it's headers describes the encoding the in which this message is encoded. Ok, so far so good. However, most of the messages/clients (not sure about it) are sent in encoding number 3, which means use your locale. So, Alice has LC_CTYPE=he_IL.cp-1255 and sends a hebrew message to Bob (which used LC_CTYPE=C) and if the message is in encoding 3, this means the encoding is LC_CTYPE. Pretty much fucked up, IMHO. Nice to have a menu which overrides it. Well... more or less, as in windows you don't really have LC_CTYPE... and I am not sure if the borked encoding number is 3... but you get the idea. Please use unicode when developing new applications/protocols. Transfer the text sing UTF-8.

Of course, if that's the case, the reboot you did in order to run the live CD should have freed that space, and so you should see the problem resolved by now.

You should realize that df shows you the disk usage, while du actually goes through the *files that have names* and shows you their sizes in allocated blocks. What is the system doing? If a file is no longer there (some temporary file, or file deleted by an application that still holds a descriptor (before fclose() or equivalent), it will show in df but not in du.

Thanks for the various suggestions. But the problem turned out to be much simpler. It seems that a couple of days ago, something went wrong during a backup job to a removeable USB disk. I think I know how it happened, but that is not relevant. The important thing is that the USB disk was unmounted in the middle of the job and as a result, about 13 Gb of files were written to the / partition instead of to the removeable drive and that completely filled the partition.

And, in any case, the partition only has /bin, /etc, /lib, /opt, /var, and other standard things. So I don´t see any reason to run out of inodes. -- Shlomo Solomon http://the-solomons.net Sent by KMail 1.11.4 (KDE 4.2.4) on LINUX Mandriva 2009.1 ___ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il
