Ok, time to test the security procedures for SlackWare... Heise reports that all Linux kernels from 2.4 up to and including 2.4.27 as well as 2.6 up to and including 2.6.8 are affected. ¹

On Slackware, there is no more xdiskusage... I was worried, because I liked it so much:

But I discovered that Konqueror (the KDE filemanager) has something called FSViewPart:

Cool!

Damn, I can’t find this anymore in Konqueror 3.4.2 – and my first thought was that they must have removed it due to some software patent! Isn’t this a totally sad reaction?

It seems that the stand-alone thing is called KDirStat. I’m surprised I can’t find the FSViewPart button in Konquerer 3.4 anymore.

Another stand-alone thing is FileLight, using a different way of representing disk usage...
