Fair enough :)

I chose the disk because before the switch everyone was boasting about how Linux doesn’t need much space 😅

I see what I can do, I deleted almost all snapshots and they get cleared after each system update so I have only a hand full.

UEFI Boot menu. Meanwhile, I managed to run GRUB, boot from another snapshot, set a new default and delete the culprit #835. Freed up some space, but still my disk is full, so now I need to find out why I guess.

When you are using the livecd are you booting all the way to the Ubuntu desktop?

Yes, I selected the “Install / Try” entry.

What gives you the nvme device name error?

I ran “sudo btrfs subvolume list /dev/nvme1n1p2” and got the errors:

ERROR: not a directory: /dev/nvme1n1p2 
ERROR: can't access '/dev/nvme1n1p2'

I think ChatGPT interpreted or assumed that theres a difference between how they are named in Ubuntu vs. how they are named in my actual system.

The output (run from my system, not from the Ubuntu Live System) of “df -h” is:

… /dev/nvme1n1p2 119G 113G 3.1G 98% / /dev/nvme1n1p1 511M 6.3M 505M 2% /boot/efi …

The amount of snapshots isn’t the problem. Sry, I forgot to add my snapper list output, but added it now. I only have 8 snapshots, when a new snapshot is made, the oldest is deleted (except for the unused current and the wrongly used #835).

It’s the #835 snapshot that seems to be taking up all the space.

Watergate salad sounds pretty disgusting.

The Ubuntu live USB made no difference. Same problem plus Ubuntu kept crashing stuff all the time, so I guess I will stay on Fedora and just live with it.

Your touchpad shows up as a PS/2 device, right?

Yes.

I am not an expert with GRUB at all. For some reason, this sounds very aggressive and with a high chance of side effects. Theres nothing of worth on the device though, so I guess I’ll give it a try.

Oh, Live USB is a good idea.

I really wanted to give Fedora a try, but maybe the time has come to give Ubuntu a second chance, when theres no solution.

I don’t think so. If the movement starts outside the “dead zone”, the touchpad works fine even within the “dead zone”. Only if the movement starts in the dead zone, it’s actually dead and its exactly the size of the “edge scroll zone”, when the option is enabled.

I had a Dell Latitude at work a few years ago, I don’t know if it was this exact model number, but the same series. And iirc on there was a driver option to disable the “dead zone” under microsoft.

I started with Opensuse Tumbleweed about 2 years ago from almost 0 knowledge and never looked back.

I wanted to get into Music with LMMS, but habe not succeeded in using VSTs via wine. How does one do this? I cannot wrap my head around it :(
