Subject: Re: ext3 disk full
purge old kernels, unused packages, and maybe dump some old logs. I presume
yoou have emptied trash. You could try using the Computer Janitor on the
System/Administration menu but I think I have heard mixed opinions about
it. When you use the disk usage analyzer, be sure to have it scan the whole
file system if you don't know where the extra space is being consumed.
