I managed to get into grub after editing the config in yast. I booted into a current snapshot and deleted most old ones, including the old 835.

Still, my disc usage is at 118 / 120gb. I cleaned up all zypper stuff that is orphaned and unneeded.

My snapper list output is now

0 │ single │ root │ current 1828 │ pre │ Fr 16 Jan 2026 17:05:39 CET │ root │ 1.76 GiB │ number │ yast snapper 1832* │ single │ Fr 16 Jan 2026 17:17:41 CET │ root │ 272.00 KiB │ writable copy of #1807

And some snapshot from all the cleanup. Looks like the #835 entry before and I kinda get the feeling ChatGPT led to wrong conclusions.

So now I need to find out why my disk space is still fucked :( Starting with btrfs cleanup I guess. Do you have any suggestions?

If your home partition part of the same filesystem then filling your home with games and media also shows as filling root also, because its all one volume.

I have ~/Misc and ~/Games mounted to two different drives and when I last checked (has been a while tbh) these drives would not affect the display for root. I remember having an eye on it in the beginning because I wasn't sure I hooked up the drives correctly.

If you don’t like CLI stuff then: You can review grub menu options in the YAST2 GUI app for boot. Here you will see if there is a delay set to pick an alternate snapshot, or boot direct.

I tried updating GRUB delay via the config file but could not apply the changes. I didn't even think about YAST. What a good call! I'll try this.

But first use YAST2 GUI to review Filesystem, it will show you how many snap shots you have and whether they are important or not. You can also set how long to keep them by time or by number of entries. You can delete old ones if you don’t need them. You can force a new snapshot. But I would clear disk space first if you are that full.

I forgot to add my snapper list output in the inital post and added it later. I have only 8 snapshots as older snapshots get deleted automatically. There is "#0 current", "#835" from back in 2024 and 6 recent snapshots. Each a snap before an update and after an update. From what I understand, my system keeps booting in the old #835 snapshot (I guess I did something wrong during a rollback) that now keeps growing after every system update.

How have your " sudo zypper dup" upgrades gone?

For the last 2 years they went through without noticable issues.

When you are using the livecd are you booting all the way to the Ubuntu desktop?

Yes, I selected the "Install / Try" entry.

What gives you the nvme device name error?

I ran "sudo btrfs subvolume list /dev/nvme1n1p2" and got the errors:

ERROR: not a directory: /dev/nvme1n1p2 
ERROR: can't access '/dev/nvme1n1p2'

I think ChatGPT interpreted or assumed that theres a difference between how they are named in Ubuntu vs. how they are named in my actual system.

The output (run from my system, not from the Ubuntu Live System) of "df -h" is:

... /dev/nvme1n1p2 119G 113G 3.1G 98% / /dev/nvme1n1p1 511M 6.3M 505M 2% /boot/efi ...

The amount of snapshots isn't the problem. Sry, I forgot to add my snapper list output, but added it now. I only have 8 snapshots, when a new snapshot is made, the oldest is deleted (except for the unused current and the wrongly used #835).

It's the #835 snapshot that seems to be taking up all the space.

Aus meiner Erfahrung: Ein paar Klatschen an den Hinterkopf.

Wenn du gerne mit den Händen ballspielen willst, ist der Fußballclub vielleicht einfach nicht der richtige Verein für dich?

[–] xtapa@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 5 months ago

Leider weder noch. Den Gute Frage Thread hatte ich auch entdeckt. Vlt versuche ich nochmal da Kontakt aufzunehmen.

[–] xtapa@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 5 months ago

Ich kenne leider die anderen, habe diese aber wirklich rauf und runter gehört. Darum wollte ich die jetzt für meine Kinder fertig machen.

Auf Wunderwolke gibt's den song / die Kassette leider nicht. Aber danke :)

[–] xtapa@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 5 months ago

Yeah this seems to be the way to go. Thanks!

Will try that, thanks!

 

Hi folks,

I got a new Xbox Series X Controller (Model 1914). I had Xbox One controller before.

With xpadneo installed I had basically no problems running my xbox one controller. It connected via BT with no issues and workes in games really well wired and wireless.

The new controller on the other hand, works really well via cable, but does not connect via BT. I can find it, I can pair it, but I cannot connect to it.

xpadneo readme says Series X needs a BT stick with BLE so I bought one, but that did not solve the problem (I'm not sure if BLE needs to be activated or how to do it rn).

 

Found some very special "make it look hacky" bash in criminal minds.

I've been trying tmux and followed a video that showcases and offers a prebuilt config for styling and plugins. Something happended (guess I did something wrong?) the styling broke and I decided I'll go bare bones and customize to my needs when needed instead of using preconfigured stuff. I deleted all configs and caches I could find with fzf and even reinstalled tmux, but still some broken styling is present and makes it unpleasent to work with. Some of my configs seem to be present even after uninstall, as the prefix is still C-Space instead of the default. There are some oh-my-zsh subfolders that contain tmux. I don't know if those have been there before and I also don't know, if I can delete them without breaking the next thing.

I'm on a MacBook and installed tmux via brew.

Hi, I just started using Logseq via the Mac desktop app. My Mouse is a Logi M720 Triathlon with thumb buttons set to default settings with Forward (Forward button) and Back (Back button). Those work just fine everywhere. IDEs, text editors, Obsidian, browsers etc. But in Logseq, the buttons do nothing and it kinda breaks my flow because I have to switch to keyboard for weird shortcuts or have to klick the back button manually. Is there a way ti fix this? I could not find a working fix yet.

Uninstall iterm2 for good (discuss.tchncs.de)
submitted 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) by xtapa@discuss.tchncs.de to c/macos@lemmy.world
 

Hi,

I'm trying to uninstall iterm2. I installed it via the installer from their webpage and tried to uninstall it by putting the application in the bin as usual. But it keeps reappearing. I also tried removing remaining files: "~/Library/Application Support/iTerm", "~/Library/Application Support/iTerm2", "~/Library/Application Support/com.apple.sharedfilelist/com.apple.LSSharedFileList.ApplicationRecentDocuments/com.googlecode.iterm2.sfl*", "~/Library/Caches/com.googlecode.iterm2", "~/Library/Cookies/com.googlecode.iterm2.binarycookies", "~/Library/Preferences/com.googlecode.iterm2.plist", "~/Library/Saved Application State/com.googlecode.iterm2.savedState",

Still, iterm will pop up as soon as I start my mac. What is this shit? How can I get rid of it?

Answer: "This shit" is my stupid brain. I forgot I reinstalled iterm after my employer introduced a managed software center. It was the only app I installed via msc myself and thus did not think of it at first.

 

Hi,

I'm in the weird spot again, where I want to update my Tumbleweed system and am lost in a dependency hell. It more or less occurs once in a while when updates drop and the prompt asks if I want to install stuff from vendor "obs://build.opensuse.org/home:wolfi323" replacing the obsolete stuff from the official openSUSE vendor.

As soon as I read wolfi323, I get fucking Vietnam flashbacks, because it means I will have to decide for ~100 services if I keep the current obsolote version or install the one from wolfi323. Either way, it's gonna fuck up a myriad of dependencies.

All that hassle just to do the same shit all over again because at some point, the official opensuse repos catch up with newer versions.

I could probably wait for the official updates, but it's uncertain, when they are going to drop and I'll just pile up thousands of updates in the meantime.

How do the Tumbleweed Folks among us deal with this?

 

Hello, I just startet up my PC and Latte-Dock seems to be gone, not only my local installation, but also the package from zypper. Does someone know whats happening here?

 

I just noticed, that my SSD is almost full and I think it is because of all the zypper packages I got installed. I've got another ~100gb SSD thats just for stuff (mounted unter "Misc" says it all) and would like to move some (or all?) of the packages like vscode, podman or other stuff on that second SSD. Is there a way to do that with zypper without removing and installing them again under the new path?
