When I started avidemux process took 100% of CPU and filled 100% home directory
d@dl:~$ df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/vg-lv2h 1.9G 1.8G 4.0K 100% /home
...
d@dl:~$ du -sm $HOME
1655 /home/d
I discovered it is fulfilled with file .xsession-errors file:
d@dl:~$ du -sm .*
...
1335 .xsession-errors
1 .xsession-errors.old
I've deleted file .xsession-errors and killed avidemux process. But, on my big surprise, home file system stays filled, EVEN home directory is not filled !?
There is no trail which file filled it, and there is mismatch between numbers got from df and du commends, so it looks like a bug:
d@dl:~$ df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/vg-lv2h 1.9G 1.8G 4.0K 100% /home
d@dl:~$ du -sm $HOME
320 /home/d
I've empty Trash, and checked /root and /root/.Trash directories. Also done "sudo apt-get clean", but it stays the same.
So how to find what eat my /home file system space ?
Thank you !
