Rob,
In kde, run 'kdirstat' and then choose the directory you want to investigate (you can choose an entire partition). kdirstat will then scan the directory tree and give you a prioritized summary of where your disk space has gone. It will take a minute or two to complete the scan.
Another great utility is 'filelight' It does basically the same thing, but presents the data in a pie chart format. kdirstat is tabular. Both will do what you want.
I installed filelight, the second i opened it it was done: *Thunderbird* eats *54%* of the /home space.. How on earth is this possible! But more important: How can i get rid of the unnessesary junk it produces? I throwed away about 15.000 mails, but that had absolutely no effect.

Or what would be the best i could do? -- Enjoy your time around, Oddball (M9.) (Now or never...)
