Steam is throwing not enough space on 1tb hardrive

[Mickeymidwest]

I’ve been trying to get DC univers online to run on steam. but after it installed it keeps saying clear up 14 gbs of space I have a 1tb hard drive with only 60gb of space being used. What could I do to fix it?

Any help would be very appreciated thanks

How was steam installed?
Usually steam takes space in your HOME.
Did you set a separate HOME partition with a certain size?

Show us something to work with.

thank you for the replay. i installed steam using the add/remove software. when i installed Manjaro i just erased the drive and did a full fresh install with default partition sizes.

Set launch options to PROTON_SET_GAME_DRIVE=1 %command%.

ProtonDB is always the best place to look for solutions if you have problems running a Steam game through Proton.

Hi @Mickeymidwest, and welcome!

Tip:

In the future, when posting terminal output, copy the output and paste it here, wrapped in three (3) backticks, before AND after the pasted text. Like this:

```
pasted text
```

Or three (3) tilde signs, like this:

~~~
pasted text
~~~

This will just cause it to be rendered like this:

Sed
sollicitudin dolor
eget nisl elit id
condimentum
arcu erat varius
cursus sem quis eros.

Instead of like this:

Sed sollicitudin dolor eget nisl elit id condimentum arcu erat varius cursus sem quis eros.

Alternatively, paste the text you wish to format as terminal output, select all pasted text, and click the </> button on the taskbar. This will indent the whole pasted section with one TAB, causing it to render the same way as described above.

Thereby increasing legibility thus making it easier for those trying to provide assistance.

On this forum here you need to have Trust Level 1 (=TL1) to be able to post screenshots and links in-line.

That’s dumb! Why is that?

Well, that’s because on our old forum we got tons of screenshots of text, links to SPAM, PR0N and other things you don’t want on a forum, so all the new users are prohibited from posting links and pics because of a few bad actors.

Additionally

If your language isn’t English, please prepend any and all terminal commands with LC_ALL=C. For example:

LC_ALL=C bluetoothctl

This will just cause the terminal output to be in English, making it easier to understand and debug.
