I just don't use it any more. but it is a more generic problem than rythmbox. no program and/or file should be able to overrun the system disk. /iaw Ivo Welch (ivo.we...@gmail.com) http://www.ivo-welch.info/ J. Fred Weston Professor of Finance Anderson School at UCLA, C519 Director, UCLA

In my case, it is Rhythmbox that has filled the .xsession-errors file. I used less on that file, jumped to the end of the file, and paged up. For about a minute, all I could see where the lines: (rhythmbox-metadata:29775): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: gst_bus_timed_pop_filtered: assertion `timeout == 0

This is hapening to me too. Plus, because I use btrfs, when I run out of space I can't even delete files. Only a full system reboot can bring the system back to workable conditions. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https
