No it wasn't full :
/dev/mapper/debian-root        1,3G  380M  867M  31% /
/dev/sda1                      228M   54M  163M  25% /boot
/dev/mapper/debian-home        148G   66G   75G  48% /home
/dev/mapper/debian-tmp         368M   89M  261M  26% /tmp

unlimited" before than xfce4-terminal. I hope that is sufficient to
get coredump, if not, please comment (or give a pointer) what more
step to do.

Thank you very much
