I have installed Ubuntu 12.10 64-bits and it worked perfectly (during days), until now. Suddenly several error messages coming from anywhere tell me that I have no free space on the disk. And now the Disk Usage Analyzer
application show me this:
I have open this application one day before and the quota of that partition was 2%. As if it had ridiculously increased in one day from 1G to 64G. You can see that this is wrong with this image:
Another thing is that, since I installed Ubuntu (from the ISO and without upgrade), all the times that I initialize the system, it checks the disk for errors.
I rebooted three times my system, and now my system is working good. Now I have 61Gb of free space.
- Is my disk with serious problem or is a bug of Quantal?
- As the problem has been resolved instantly without changing anything, Should I do something to prevent it?
- Should I report this as a bug? How?
The disc is correct

, should help determine how much disk space is being used by the logs. You can even run this at the root level (du -sc /*
) to see where the abnormal disk usage is, if any. No need to install additional tools for this, I think. – roadmr Oct 26 '12 at 19:26
