 +Your account is most likely over its disk quota, and your X-window session cannot write any files into your home directory.

 +To fix:
 +
 +    * Log into the system via the console (press CTRL-ALT-F2)
 +    * ssh to bohr.
 +    * Type the command 'quota -v'.
 +    * Find the files that are using all your space with the 'du' command. (type 'man du' for information on usage)
 +    * Remove, move away, or compress files such that you are below your quota.
 +    * You can switch back to the X-Window login by pressing CTRL-ALT-F7 
 +    * Remember to logout of your console session when done with it for security reasons
