If you run Ubuntu and you suddenly discover that your /tmp is running out of space then open up /etc/mtab

Those of you that have been following my twitter feed might have read that I recently had an unfortunate encounter with the street pavement after a fall with my bicycle. A lovely day turned into a nightmare after visiting the hospital, the doctors said that my jaw was broken.
I had surgery last week and I’m now slowly recovering.

I had surgery on crack nr. 1 and now my teeth are put in some kind of brace to prevent my chin from moving horizontally. The other cracks, 2 and 3, are not going to be treated immediately (either my body deals with it in the ‘natural’ way or I’ll have surgery in the far future).
