saw what the others have already written like df -h and maybe dot files Adding to that 1) do you have an indexing software that works automatically - if so its cache sometimes become pretty big esp if external disks are added (if you had set it up that way) 2) similarly some photo manager which caches thumbnails ** did you use Baobab (Applications - Accessories - disk Usage analyser) it may not be command line but its provides super views of where space is going. ram -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in
