Free available hard disk space software for linux

Filesys::DiskSpace is a Perl module as a df replacement.

SYNOPSIS

use Filesys::DiskSpace;
($fs_type, $fs_desc, $used, $avail, $fused, $favail) = df $dir;

This routine displays information on a file system such as its type, the amount of disk space occupied, the total disk space and the number of inodes. It tries syscall(SYS_statfs) and syscall(SYS_statvfs) in several ways. If all fails, it croaks.

OPTIONS

$fs_type

[number] type of the filesystem.

$fs_desc

[string] description of this fs.

$used

[number] size used (in Kb).

$avail

[number] size available (in Kb).

$ffree

[number] free inodes.

$fused

[number] inodes used.

Hard Disk Temperature Monitor is my first superkaramba theme, it uses the package hddtemp, please verify if your system has it installed.

I modify this image(http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=28748)

And made the Icon, from 2 images from the web.

The entire theme is in spanish, but you can translate to any language.

I really apreciate your comments!

Thank you so much, and greetings from Medellin-Colombia!

Super Grub Disk is a bootable floppy or CDROM that is oriented towards system rescue, specifically for repairing the booting process.

Super Grub Disk is simply a Grub Disk with a lot of useful menus.

It can activate partitions, boot partitions, boot MBRs, boot your former OS (Linux or another one) by loading menu.lst from your hard disk, automatically restore Grub on your MBR, swap hard disks in the BIOS, and boot from any available disk device.

Super Grub Disk project has multi-language support, and allows you to change the keyboard layout of your shell.

SimpleWebShare is a small application for publishing a part of your hard disk on the Web. Simple Web Share project displays files and directories in a list view and allows them to be downloaded, including on-the-fly zipping.
Main features:
- Display file and directory as list
- Download of file
- Download of directory with on-the-fly zip generation (with a customizable folders size limit)
- Simple HTTP Authentification
- Localized interface (currently french or english)

TreeSize for Unix is a disk consumption analyzing tool, which sorts folders according to their physical occupied sizes.

The perfect tool to help you obtaining more disk free space, on your hard drive, usb pen drive or even on network folders (provided that they are mounted and you have access to them, of course )

Just like du, it counts hard links just once and the space utilized by different filesystems are not added together.

Filesys::DfPortable is a Perl extension for filesystem disk space information.

SYNOPSIS

use Filesys::DfPortable;

my $ref = dfportable("C:"); # Default block size is 1, which outputs bytes
if(defined($ref)) {
print"Total bytes: $ref->{blocks}n";
print"Total bytes free: $ref->{bfree}n";
print"Total bytes avail to me: $ref->{bavail}n";
print"Total bytes used: $ref->{bused}n";
print"Percent full: $ref->{per}n"
}


my $ref = dfportable("/tmp", 1024); # Display output in 1K blocks
if(defined($ref)) {
print"Total 1k blocks: $ref->{blocks}n";
print"Total 1k blocks free: $ref->{bfree}n";
print"Total 1k blocks avail to me: $ref->{bavail}n";
print"Total 1k blocks used: $ref->{bused}n";
print"Percent full: $ref->{per}n"
}

This module provides a portable way to obtain filesystem disk space information.

The module should work with all versions of Windows (95 and up), and with all flavors of Unix that implement the statvfs or the statfs calls. This would include Linux, *BSD, HP-UX, AIX, Solaris, Mac OS X, Irix, Cygwin, etc ...

This module differs from Filesys::Df in that it has added support for Windows, but does not support open filehandles as a argument.

dfportable() requires a directory argument that represents the filesystem you want to query. There is also an optional block size argument so that you can tailor the size of the values returned. The default block size is 1, this will cause the function to return the values in bytes. If you never use the block size argument, then you can think of any instance of "blocks" in this document to really mean "bytes".

dfportable() returns a reference to a hash. The keys available in the hash are as follows:

{blocks} = Total blocks on the filesystem.
{bfree} = Total blocks free on the filesystem.
{bavail} = Total blocks available to the user executing the Perl application. This can be different than {bfree} if you have per-user quotas on the filesystem, or if the super user has a reserved amount. {bavail} can also be a negative value because of this. For instance if there is more space being used then you have available to you.
{bused} = Total blocks used on the filesystem.
{per} = Percent of disk space used. This is based on the disk space available to the user executing the application. In other words, if the filesystem has 10% of its space reserved for the superuser, then the percent used can go up to 110%.
You can obtain inode information through the module as well. But you must call exists() on the {files} key to make sure the information is available. Some filesystems may not return inode information, for example Windows, and some NFS filesystems.

Here are the available inode keys:

{files} = Total inodes on the filesystem.
{ffree} = Total inodes free on the filesystem.
{favail} = Total inodes available to the user executing the application. See the rules for the {bavail} key.
{fused} = Total inodes used on the filesystem.
{fper} = Percent of inodes used on the filesystem. See rules for the {per} key.

If the dfportable() call fails for any reason, it will return undef. This will probably happen if you do anything crazy like try to get information for /proc, or if you pass an invalid filesystem name, or if there is an internal error. dfportable() will croak() if you pass it a undefined value.

Vector Linux is a small, fast, Linux operating system for Intel, AMD and x86 compatible systems, based on one of the original Linux distributions, Slackware.

Enhancements:
- The VectorLinux development team is proud to announce the release of VectorLinux 5.8 Standard, code named Santa (Merry Christmas!). This is the fruit that has resulted from several months of coding, debugging and testing by the core development team and the VectorLinux community. This release follows our legendary tradition of stability (inherited from Slackware 11.0), blazing speed on even modest hardware, and simplicity of design and function. The release features fully-working browser plugins, including Flash 9, Java, mp3, Real and Windows media, and DVD playback. Additional features include: Linux kernel 2.6.18.5, fully customized Xfce 4.3.99.2, SeaMonkey 1.0.6, Firefox 2.0 and Opera 9.10, the GIMP and Xara LX for your graphic needs, AbiWord and Gnumeric for your office tasks...

ZipSlack is a special edition of Slackware Linux that can be installed onto any FAT (or FAT32) filesystem with about 100 MB of free space. It uses the UMSDOS filesystem and contains most of the programs you will need.

This means that you do not need to repartition your hard disk if you already have DOS or Windows installed. ZipSlack installs into a directory on your DOS filesystem. It can also be installed to and booted from a Zip disk.

This distribution is ideal for people who dont have a lot of hard disk space, do not have a fast Internet connection to download the entire distribution, or who want a Linux distribution they can carry around on a Zip disk.
