This does not fit; the subdirectories add up only to 9G, not 11G. Clean up your /tmp (1.4 GB) and look for the missing 2GB. That leaves you with 8GB, which is not too uncommon for an installation with KDE and/or GNOME installed.
..<snip rest>............. Ummmm....Just two crazy off-the-wall things. Are you using Kdar? About a year ago I had the same problem. It turns out that Kdar was writing some kind of temp files to the root directory and were not visible. Don't remember now how I fixed it. There was a lot of discussion on this list. Maybe a . file??? Another time I was fiddling with a bunch of video files as root. (Yeah I know) and deleting files was filling up root's trash can. Just some crazy suggestions.
