Please describe the problem:
Ok I downloaded the wine source code into my /home directory which was a 1.5GB
partition, while I was building the source my laptops screen suddenly went blank
and even though I could tell it was still on all I had was a blank screen with a
cursor in the top left.  At this point all I could do was power down the laptop
and restart it, upon startup gdm started correctly and I was able to log in
however after logging in gnome-session and other components of gnome took
forever to load (upwards of 5 minutes, my laptop is a 600Mhz PIII and it usually
takes much less than a minute to load).

At this point I went to a command prompt and investigated the problem, totally
by change I checked the free diskspace and found my home directory at 100% full.
 So I cleaned up the hard drive and rebooted and everything worked as usual.

This is not a major bug and there is a workaround however a windowing system
should not freeze up when whenever a drive is full...

Steps to reproduce:
1. Fill up your hard drive or your home directory
2. Screen will go blank or gnome will take forever to load after logging into gdm



Actual results:
When the home directory fills up the screen will go blank and the computer will
be unusable, when you reboot and log into gnome, gnome-session and other gnome
components will take forever to load.

Expected results:
If the home directory fills up too 100% then I would expect nothing more than an
error message to appear on the screen and everything to work as normal.

Does this happen every time?
This has only happened once but was correctable by cleaning up the hard drive.
