Meet the Artemis Team

Could I not think about the Moon and the next missions?

Obviously no... thus... Artemis is the next generation that will step on it: have a good take off, a good travel and ...send back the best message: united towards the civilization of other planets in the name of peace!

How to free HDD space

I had difficult to access on my desktop on Ubuntu 19.10.

• As first step I rebooted the system and accessed Ubuntu in a safe modality and, later, I chose the option to start a terminal in root mode
• on the device sda8 (/) the space was over (I used df -h):
  
  
  

  In this picture /dev/sda8 has a sufficient space to allow me to start the OS

• I noticed that time ago I had problem with my notebook camera that didn't work properly
• then I tried to know how much was the size of the files in /var/log folder to know if something interesting could have come out and I found just that file, related with my camera, was larger in size than it normally could have been, even more then 6 Gigabytes!!



the offending file was called uvcdynctrl-udev.log (in the red rectangle above). In the picture it doesn't have a large size (because I proceeded to delete it).


• I proceeded to delete it (don't panic! It will be recreated again by the system)
• Then I was able to start again my Ubuntu 19.10

P.S. if you want to try another way to show the space occupied by some file or folder I suggest you to install ncdu:
