lubot<Mateusz Konieczny> "also, I was wondering how to make the desktop open applications desktop specific (so I don't see the ones I opened on desktop 1 on desktop 3 for example)" - the same for me!06:23
lubot<Mateusz Konieczny> I found it!06:24
lubot<Mateusz Konieczny> Right-click bottom panel on empty space, select "configure task manager", change "Show only windows from desktop" to "current"06:25
lubot<Mateusz Konieczny> Now if anyone knows - where this config is saved? I want to automate this change for new installs./06:26

lubot<Mateusz Konieczny> What is limiting size of /tmp ?14:30
lubot<Mateusz Konieczny> I have single partition for everything ( / mount point) except swap and one for swap.14:31
lubot<Mateusz Konieczny> `lsblk` appears to confirm this14:31
lubot<Mateusz Konieczny> But when I navigate with PsManFM-qt to /tmp it is showing that I have only 1.9 GB of free space.14:32
lubot<Mateusz Konieczny> I have 48.7 GB of free space on /14:32
lubot<Mateusz Konieczny> In combination with Unity Hub being stupid ( https://forum.unity.com/threads/there-is-not-enough-space-to-download-and-install-the-selected-items-bug.684841/ ) I am unable to install 2019.3 release of Unity.14:33
lubot<Mateusz Konieczny> 1) How can I check partitions? `lsblk` and KDE partition manager is not showing /tmp as being on a separate partition14:34
lubot<Mateusz Konieczny> 2) or is maybe /tmp using swap partition?14:34
lubot<Mateusz Konieczny> 3) is there some other limit of /tmp folder size?14:35
wxl@Mateusz (i can't really at you because you don't have a username, fyi) if you `mount | grep tmp` what does it report for the size key? also try `df -h | grep tmp`14:42
lubot<Mateusz Konieczny> @wxl https://gist.github.com/matkoniecz/63f8c5b2eab417852410f79427c7a158 has `mount | grep tmp` output, not sure how to interpret it14:46
lubot<Mateusz Konieczny> tmpfs on /tmp type tmpfs (rw,noatime)14:46
lubot<Mateusz Konieczny> has no specified size14:46
lubot<Mateusz Konieczny> df -h | grep tmp is showing something14:46
lubot<Mateusz Konieczny> tmpfs           2,0G  300K  2,0G   1% /tmp14:47
lubot<Mateusz Konieczny> what would fit 2GB limit shown by file browser14:47
lubot<Mateusz Konieczny> but I am unsure about its source14:47
wxlmeaning you're unsure what sets it?14:47
wxlyou might find this useful https://askubuntu.com/questions/199565/not-enough-space-on-tmp14:48
wxlthe remount with a different size seems like it would do the trick for you14:48
lubot<Mateusz Konieczny> I am especially confused by one thing - I though that you have 1 file system on 1 partition14:49
lubot<Mateusz Konieczny> And from what I see I have more than one file system on a single partition, with file systems acting as subpartitions (?)14:49
lubot<Mateusz Konieczny> Including size limits and maybe other stuff that I though were acting at partition level14:49
lubot<Mateusz Konieczny> Also mounting seemed to me to apply at partition level14:50
wxlwell a partition is a subdivision of physical hard drive space14:50
wxlit's a physical measurement14:50
wxlwhile a filesystem can mean a lot of different things14:50
wxlincluding nothing!14:50
wxlwell, nothing physical at least14:51
lubot<Mateusz Konieczny> So what will `sudo umount /tmp` do?14:52
lubot<Mateusz Konieczny> It will unmount current /tmp and new one will appear, now not longer as separate filesystem?14:52
wxlremove the virtual filesystem (of type tmpfs) related to /tmp14:52
wxlwhich doesn't remove /tmp but removes the special-ness of it and then /tmp is nothing more than a set of actual files on your hard drive14:53
lubot<Mateusz Konieczny> I am asking as RAM disk (solution 1) will not work - I have just 4GB and need over 20GB of space.14:53
wxljust look at the remount solution; tl;dr you remount tmp with the size you l ike14:53
wxlhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tmpfs14:54
lubot<Mateusz Konieczny> At least I know where part of hard drive capacity disappeared, it was taken by /tmp14:55
lubot<Mateusz Konieczny> Thanks! `sudo mount -o remount,size=10G /tmp` worked14:57
wxlnp :)14:57
wxlremember that won't be permanent14:57
wxli'm not sure that matters in this case14:57
lubot<Mateusz Konieczny> Now I need to figure how much stupid Unity needs because it is not showing real needs and real capacity14:57
lubot<Mateusz Konieczny> nonpernament is preferable!14:58
lubot<Mateusz Konieczny> I want it just during install14:58
wxlwell that's a good question that i really don't know. i'd probably ask them although judging by that link you might not get good answers XD14:58
lubot<Mateusz Konieczny> And I have relatively small SSD so wasting 10-20GB is not OK14:58
lubot<Mateusz Konieczny> @wxl I will just experiment14:58
lubot<Mateusz Konieczny> Binary search FTW14:58
wxlheh yep14:58
lubot<Mateusz Konieczny> 10GB allowed installation to start. Thanks again for a help, I was really confused what is happening!15:04

tweakhi, just curious the file location for mouse cursor themes?22:03
tweaknevermind, answered my own question22:04
