Bryan,<br><br>You could try something like this:<br><br>Install zenity if it's not already in your system. It's a small package unless you have to delve into a lot of dependencies. It allows you to use the gtk widget set to display dialogs.
<br><br>Then put something like this in a bash script that runs in cron every 5 minutes:<br><br>#!/bin/bash<br>SPACE=`df -h|head -n 3|tail -n 1|awk '{ print $3 }'|sed 's/G//g'`<br>SPACEDESIRED=5<br>if [ $SPACE -le $SPACEDESIRED ] ;
<br>then<br>zenity --error --text "There is only $SPACE GB of space remaining on the system. You must delete 3-5 recorded programs to have enough space to record anything new."<br>fi<br><br>I don't know if you can get zenity dialogs to listen to LIRC, but mythnotify or wifeypopup could be used in subsitution for zenity in the above example.
