My Kubuntu crashed, not seriously, but enough so Mysql would not start and KDE could not start properly. I had no desktop and all the widgets couldn’t be found.<\/p>\n
I tried everything but I couldn’t find anything wrong except syslog and other log files were empty (zero bytes).<\/p>\n
How could this happen I didn’t change anything, OK, I did a apt-get update\/upgrade, but that could not crash the system? I did the update\/upgrade at work without problems.<\/p>\n
I messed with the system for a couple of hours and even reset the Bios. This gave me big problems as well, after the Bios reset the system would not start. Tried to reset a 1000 times. When I pressed the power button only a little buzz and then quiet again. Almost the hole computer was ripped apart, no help.
\nBut there was a little shiny object on the motherboard, the battery!
\nI removed the battery and reset the plus\/minus poles inserted the battery again and the system would start again.<\/p>\n
I messed with log files again until the hammer hit me: Why would files be zero byte? Because there is no more space left on the partition…<\/p>\n
I remembered the old command from SUN days: df<\/strong>.<\/p>\n The next was the devil using all my disk space and the devil was Mythtv. After moving the files to another partition and a reboot almost everything worked as normal. Had to reconfigure my Display setup and add a new default panel to the desktop.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" My Kubuntu crashed, not seriously, but enough so Mysql would not start and KDE could not start properly.
