    Dolphin Disk Space?

    Dolphin used to show the disk space available in the bottom part of the window for the main system drive with 8.10 now with 9.04 it only shows the space of portable drives plugged in on the side.

    How do I check disk space now?

    I use Krusader as a main file manager and there is a menu option Disk space in it.
    Kubuntu 16.04 on two computers and Kubuntu 17.04 on DELL Latitude 13

      Dolphin is not the greatest tool for checking disk space. If you right-click a file, or a directory/folder, or a drive, and choose "Properties" it will show the size. But you can always Shift-F4 and pop open a console window, and then
      Code:
      df -lh
      , or
      Code:
      sudo apt-get install filelight
      and use filelight, among other tools.

        Settings -> Configure Dolphin...

        General -> Status Bar

        Check "Show space information"

          I prefer:
          Code:
          df -hTxtmpfs
          as this provides space data on just the mounted partitions (root, home, and any other partitions you have set up in fstab).
          Windows no longer obstructs my view.
          Using Kubuntu Linux since March 23, 2007.
