Hi,

A weird thing happened. All of a sudden my / partition was 100% full when 
normally and as it is now again only 30 % is used. I could not find any files 
to delete so I had to reinstall RH73.

In the process I lost the program gnomecard for my adresses. I can't find it 
on any of my old CDs, not in gnome.org and a google search put me back on 
gnome; tocosw was negative as well.

Does anyone know where it is hidden and guide me in my apparent blindness.

Thanks & regards

In the Debian packaging system, this app is part of the package 
"gnome-pim", along with gnomecal (the Calendar app). You might see if RH, 
or gnome.org, packages it similarly.

Thanks Ray, I found gnomecard  as you suggested in gnome-pim in RH7.1 and not 
anymnore in RH7.3 of Krud Linux. Why would they leave-out such a nice program?

I still wonder how my "/" partition could suddenly fill to 100% and not 
showing any unusual large or duplicate files. Is there a virus around?

Regards

Not that I've heard about. How much space are we actually talking about 
(100% of what capacity)? And how quick was "suddenly" (seconds? minutes? 
hours?)? These days, I never see this problem, but way back when, I saw it 
happen if logging got out of hand, so /var/log got full (assuming /var 
isn't a separate filesystem).

Since the system is reinstalled, suggesting diagnostics is a bit late. If 
it should happen again, use "du" to hone in on where the space is being 
gobbled up.
