Description Lukas 2010-03-12 01:05:33 UTC
Version:           1.9rc3 (using 4.4.1 (KDE 4.4.1) "release 227", KDE:KDE4:Factory:Desktop / openSUSE_11.2)
Compiler:          gcc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.31.12-0.1-default

i have flowing  partions: 
/ - local ~20gb
/home - local ~100gb
/media/Archive - external 1tb hdd

In "home summary" screen all of them are being displayed correctly, however trying to get data about / all of them is scanned and represented in the results. This makes imposible to spot the leaks in relatively small / partition, as Archive account for almost 98% of space :(

I guess it either does not exclude other partitions by their mount point, either there might be some symlinks to other partitions, and FileLight follows them :(


However big thanks for great app ;)

I am unable to reproduce this. To make sure: is 'Scan across filesystem boundaries' unchecked in settings dialog?
