Keywords: Manpages Message-ID: <2ermpb$rqd@news.u.washington.edu> Date: 17 Dec 93 07:23:23 GMT Article-I.D.: news.2ermpb$rqd Organization: University of Washington, Seattle Lines: 21 NNTP-Posting-Host: hardy.u.washington.edu Hello! I went to look at my gdb manpage today and since it had not been compiled as of yet, I got a "Write Failed: Filesystem full message" and my gdb manpage seems to have departed this mortal coil; leaving only a filetable entry of size 0 in my cat1 directory ( i assume that this is where it was living in it's pre-compiled, embryonic state ). Am i mistaken in thinking that it is gone forever? Is it located some- where else on my fs? Could someone ship me a new one please? Or tell me where to find it! On a somewhat related note. What is fsck telling me about my remaining space on my disk? It claims that i have about a third of my disk remainingf free. Is it including my swapspace in it's inventory? That would explain why i have no space on my fs when i go to compile manpages and recalcitrant gnuplots 'n things! Thnx for your input john utz spaz@hardy.u.washington.edu ps: What the hell is mosaic, anyway?
