I think you have gotten confused. KDE is referring to free memory ( RAM ) while free space is referrring to your hard drive.

You should be able to fix the multiple characters being placed in System Settings > Keyboard & Mouse, by increasing the Keyboard repeat delay, or decreasing the rate.

Hi Drangoncaat,

If bcooksley's help with the "multiple repeating chars" is not enough, check this post: -solved-keyboard-too-slow-and-repeating-t-14274.html#pid18986

I hope it helps.

For the disk space issues you can check the available space of your filesystems (if you are doubt the warning message) by typing:

Code: Select all

$ df -h


To see what "folders" are taking the most space, you can play with the "du" command.

I hope this will help you to find a solution to your problems.
