Greetings, The 100 Mb recommended size for /tmp is far too small and out of date. Some of the others including / are also too small. I ran out of space for krita, had a look, and decided 5Gb would be a safe over estimate. krita now works. Prior to the /tmp partition increase I put a symlink

First of all: check out the "df" command. Then check out "mount". Both have manpages which should be on every newbie's reading list. Chances are, yes, /tmp is a separate partition, but it's easy to see for yourself. Meanwhile, I don't use xcdroast much but can't it be configured to extract to

/tmp size

I recently discovered that /tmp on my machine is rather small, around 50mb. I was trying to use xcdroast, but was unable to extract an audio cd to /tmp because it wasn't big enough. This is strange, because I probably have 50gb empty on my hard drive. I'm wondering if /tmp is a separate partitio
