Oh yet, sorry I forgot to add a full description of the "little bug" I mentioned in my ITP xdiskusage takes the output of du and processes that correct? The version of du I have ends its output with this: 225124 ./home/andross 24 ./home/sleeze 241388 ./home 4 ./mnt/e 4 ./mnt/smb 4 ./mnt/loop 4 ./mnt/liz 20 ./mnt 4 ./floppy 4 ./cdrom 4 ./initrd 4 ./dvd 4 ./cdr 1944432 . If xdiskusage incorrectly interperets the last entry to be "/" instead of "" (nothing) and computes it as part of the subdirectories. This problem persists when listing all files. I believe this causes the size of the used space to be twice what it should be! This may also cause my second problem: when descending from the root directory on my "one big filesystem" installation (i.e. no /home /usr or any other partitions except old windoze ones) the program segaults and terminates. If xdiskusage uses the output of df to determine the disk capacity then the error might stem from the fact that the used space seems to be greater than the disk capacity! I have taken a screen shot of the first problem. You may view it here: http://www.eecs.wsu.edu/~kpauls/xdiskusage.jpg Note it still reports some free space, which clashes with my theory... Thanks for packaging xdiskusage! I probably wouldn't have been able to have done a good job since it would have been my first. -karl
