As you can see in my inxi my tmpfs/run/user/1000 is full which causes a whole bunch of problems with Vivaldi (and firedragon) where logins are lost, websites don't work (had to disable profile sync to be able to even write this post)

I posted on the telegram group about this and was advised to disable profile sync so I ran systemctl --user stop psd and systemctl --user disable psd but upon the next reboot they get renabled.

how do I either

fix the issue so i can use psd?
if thats not possible how do i permently disable psd?

EDIT: thought the inxi showed the free space of /run/user/1000 but don't see it so here it is

df /run/user/1000
Filesystem      1K-blocks       Used Available Use% Mounted on
tmpfs             3278840    3278836         4 100% /run/user/1000

Would removing Vivaldi and Firedragon from ~/.config/psd.conf help?

BluishHumility · 5 June 2022 17:52

I am under the impression pam_systemd will wipe this directory for you if you reboot. Is that not happening?

zany130 · 5 June 2022 17:56

no it stays full on a reboot. (possibly because it just copies all of my browsers settings again to it on login)

should have actually checked if the config ( i did read there is one on the arch wiki page but I don’t why i didn’t think there would be an option to disable it for certain browsers)

yes that does seem to help

although ideally, I would like to fix profile sync as its a pretty cool script

EDIT: noticed its vivaldi thats filling up the tmpfs left firedragon enabled and its at

df /run/user/1000/
Filesystem     1K-blocks  Used Available Use% Mounted on
tmpfs            3278840 43856   3234984   2% /run/user/1000

figured it out so the issue is since vivaldi also has a built in mail client (which I use) it uses about 5GB of space. by deafult arch limits /run/user/100 to 10% of your total memory. I have 32GB so thats 3.2GB which is less than the 5GB vivaldi uses and it also has to account for firedragon.

the solution was to edit /etc/systemd/logind.conf as seen here logind.conf(5) — Arch manual pages I set it to 25% which actually may be a little high but that's the maximum allowed not what is actually allocated (it seems it only allocates what it needs up to this limit)

it would be nice if it wouldn't sync the mail database but I don't think there (at least I couldn't find any) options to exclude certain file paths
