I'm using windowmaker and Gworkspace with Gnustep installed. I've been having problems with my system telling me my root partition is out of space when I've been downloading stuff and putting it in my /usr partition which is over 9gb in size. when I partitioned my hard drive. I spilt a gig in swap var. and root. is this normal or is there something I should change with the linked files?
