Hello,
Today I installed some programs that I needed and since that, I keep having a popup that I have no enough space left.
Then I rebooted my computed and I couldn't even start with GNOME, the only I could use was the terminal because it kept saying that there was not enough space left even for creating some temp files. So I uninstalled some packages like Openoffice. After that I rebooted again and worked.
The problem is that I still have that popup that I have no space enough left. It says that only have 10MB free.
Thanks in advance and sorry my bad english!
Hope you can help me.

Well... Check what df tells you about your actual free space, and then check which subdirectories on your root partition take most of the space. Maybe some logs are filling up your partition, but maybe it's just too small a root partition you set up?

If you need to rearrange your partitions you can use e.g. http://redobackup.org/
Be sure to backup your data first.

How do I clean the logs? I have 2 logs of 700MB :l
The partition has 151GB and more than 100GB free. It's mounted in /home and that's the folder that says that it's almost full

Hi,
Easiest way to find you larger folders is to use something like:
du -hs * | sort -nr | head

@ Nocta
Can you post the output of 'df -h'? If you have 100 GB free and still "there's not enough space on the device" then something''s wrong.

Before all this, I had a folder full of music that I had to delete to make space.

What are those numbers? Is it the output of 'du -hs * | sort -nr | head'? Do you have enough space or not?

I've showed you mine, can you post the output of 'df -h' so we can see your situation?

@op - get ncdu and run it on / posting the output here
# pacman -S ncdu
# ncdu /
CPU-optimized Linux-ck packages @ Repo-ck • AUR packages • Zsh and other configs

cd / && du -s * 2>/dev/null | sort -nr
will be much faster than ncdu.

Your /home looks fine. Its your root thats full. Try clearing Pacman's cache (pacman -Sc).

That's your root, it is used in 100%.
The first line - /dev/disk/by-uuid/b769014a-eab8-4abe-9994-b37963613dfb - is the name of your root partition.
