What leads you to think your video freeze problems is related to the available space in /tmp? Are you getting a warning or message? Your browser can be frozen because of many reasons, even more if you load a flash-based movie. > Additional clues / confirmation of my problem: > * After doing a df and finding /tmp at 100% full, I then do things > like > ls -alR /tmp/* (or du -a /tmp) and look at the size of the files > there--I can see that the named files are nowhere near big enough to > fill up /tmp.
