Is it possible to increase the amount of disk space allowed to Guest account?

    There should be no restrictions on Guest-accounts disk space, except the size of the disk hosting the guest users home directory.

  • I get write error (disk full?) although there is enough free space in disk.

    Could you update the question with df -h and df -i done from a terminal in the guest account? And check in /var/log/messages and /var/log/syslog is ther are entries with disk errors.

  • @yildizabdullah the notice is not claiming the disk is full. It is a suggestion based on the fact there is a "write error". The way you word this question you make assumptions about the cause; please do not do that cuz it will have people searching for sollutions you do not need ;-) That could also be a broken disk. write error (disk full?) should have been in the question. Plus also the -when- do you get this notice? If it happens during unpacking the archive is likely corrupt (so failing a basic crc check).

Which professions warranted travel in Medieval times?

Image
Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 54 down vote favorite 15 I'm trying to come up with characters whose backgrounds allow them to have homes, histories, and skills, but will still enable or encourage them to travel in a typical medieval setting. I've never really liked "Adventurer" as a job, and would like my story to have a kind of unlikely-hero vibe. besides the common "Traveling merchant", what kinds of artisans or professionals in fantasy would have a reason to move around the world (or at least visit other settlements)? First time posting, so let me know what to improve. Thanks! EDIT: When I say traveling, I was thinking someone who spends multiple days/weeks/months away from their place of origin as they go elsewhere for their business, or to gather materials for it. medieval travel share | improve this question edited Aug 1 at 15:16 asked Aug 1 at 15:07 Julia Witham 279 2 7 11 Please ...

How do so many people here on Academia.SE, and in general, afford lavish higher education programs?

Image
Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 45 down vote favorite 7 I graduated last year with a BS in Computer Science. I do not come from a particularly wealthy family, (very low middle class), and was only able to afford my education via school loans/scholarships and working low-wage jobs, with no support from my family or anyone else. I realize some scholarship/loan programs extend into grad school. But I don't think those cover all costs. Now I'm lucky enough to have a decent-paying salary in industry, along with benefits and living on my own, and I'm thinking one day (sooner rather than later) I'd like to try my hand at research or continue my degree, but these things cost money, in addition to my regular living expenses. I read posts here often about academic people being in positions of choosing between these crazy research grad programs, some in Japan, or Ireland (while they currently live in the U.S./U.K.) then moving around between countries/universit...
