[mythtv-users] Lost all recordings because of ".xsession-errors" file

[Steve Malenfant]

Tonight me and wife sat down to watch a show... Only 5 recordings left...
Hmmm...

Get into the shell and check it out, 1.2TB used of 1.3TB but space left is
0. Alright. I've seen this in the past.

Although what I've never seen is that my mythtv directory is EMPTY!

A file named .xsessions-errors in my home directory was 937GB.

EVERYTHING auto-expired... We are pissed. The 5 episodes left were database
update errors... The files are gone!

I guess it is my fault for sharing a "/" for everything...
