What the heck .. more boot issues!

Fri Jan 29, 2021 3:22 pm
Hi

I'm kinda new to linux and KDE but honestly I'm already feeling very negative with all the issues!
I'm running Kubuntu ... this is the second time I suddenly out of no where have boot issues for no known reason!

So I try boot into my system this morning (dual boot with Windows 7, which I can boot into fine btw) ... and I get this message after selecting to boot into Kubuntu....

Xsession: warning: unable to write to /tmp; X session may exit with an error


And then nothing. Back to Grub menu where I am only able to boot into Windows 7.
I tried selecting recovery options ... ran "check/repiar package" and " check/repiar file system", but none of those sorted the issue!

I'm not a tech guy, just a surface user, an artist trying to work in Krita ... but so tired of pc issues.
Does anyone know the issue and how to fix this?

Was running latest Kubuntu version, with PPA updates etc.

My first thought is a full partition, which seems to be confirmed after doing a web search on the error message. It seems to be a common reason, but could of course be other things as well.

From Konsole try
df -h

to see how much of your partitions are being used.
