I went with the roll your own option of df, cron and Zenity for a GUI alert. Works really well. - Chris </blockquote></div> As Alan pointed out though, Ubuntu 9.10 already has a low disk space alert so you won't need to roll your own if you decide to upgrade to this version when it is released. The alert that you should see in Ubuntu 9.10 looks like this: <a href="http://bugzilla-attachments.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=137491">http://bugzilla-attachments.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=137491</a> (apologies for the large image). The "Examine" button opens baobab disk analyzer. Regards Chris
