Thanks to all who responded to provide suggestions on how to resolve the subject problem. I think I have narrowed down the problem to apparently being something that the free google program 'picasa' is most likely causing by creating lots of files and file lists buried deeply in a sub-sub-sub-sub-directory many layers down. Anyone familiar with this? Any recommendations how to eliminate this file-space erosion? While I am running a Linux system, it seems that Google installed picasa as a dos/windows-like program running under wine. So, is the only remedy to delete 'picasa' and if so, how best to do that? Or, is there some way of modifying 'picasa' so that it won't eat file-space, even when it is not being used? --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
