oh it's missing the important part. try df -h | grep rootfs

you don't have to post a pic, the number in the free or precentage columns are enough.

No, that's the output from "df -h", with the actual data I was looking for in there (for rootfs) scrolled off the screen.

Please type in exactly what I gave you - you should get a couple of lines of output from the "df -h /" command, and a single number out from the "du -hsx /" command.

That's perfect. So you are completely out of rootfs space, and have about 65M more on there than I do on mine. The next question is what's using the space. Can you run:
Code:
root
du -hsx /bin /etc /lib /root /sbin /tmp /usr /var

It should just output 8 lines, giving the disk space used for each of the 8 listed directories.

That all looks pretty normal I'm afraid - doesn't look like there's any big files where they shouldn't be. It looks like you've just installed too many non-optified apps from extras-testing and extras-devel.

All I can suggest at this stage is to disable all the repositories (to free up some space), then use App manager to uninstall any big apps. You can use the scripts I've posted to find which packages are taking up the most space. It's then a case of matching the package name to the application and uninstalling.

You might also want to read through the various other threads on freeing up rootfs space, to see whether there's any other ideas there that might apply.
