Game using Root space? (Linux)

[Arugela]

I'm on Fedora 22 and I keep getting the disk usage is limited warning for my root partition while playing the game(This is from what I can tell only while using a very large 2k+ part ship). It then crashes to desktop. I'm wondering what is using root from the game. Or, if not, what in fedora might be doing something as the game plays that is using the root drive? Would either auto use temp or something similar?!

 

I'm hoping this is something I can turn off somehow as It would be a pain to repartition and increase the root drive size. That or move the file/folders to a non root location.

I believe I already previously had turned off log from the launchers setting to get extra performance.

I have 15.7 gigs total with 2.6gigs free while the game is not running according to my file manager.

Anyone have any idea?

KSP only uses its own folder, but Unity writes the Player.log and prefs files to /home/user/.config/unity3d/Squad/Kerbal\ Space\ Program/ on Debian distributions.

There shouldn't be anything written outside of these folders by KSP so you will need to provide at least your Player.log, but really you will need to check your Fedora logs to find out what is happening, please see the Fedora documentation on how to do this.

If your /home is on root fs, I'd go with sal_vagers. Otherwise, you can see all open files of any process in /proc/$PID/fd/

Or to takcle it from different angle, there is a nifty tool called "filelight" that display very nice chart of filesystem usage. (I guess you are not friend with shell :-)
