I think

sudo apt-get clean

Try running this to see where the most data on your drive is:


du -h --max-depth=1 / 2> /dev/null

Note: the 2> /dev/null is there to get rid of the "permission denied" messages when it tries to work thru /proc.

32K /media
4,0K /selinux
11M /etc
6,5M /bin
0 /proc
69M /opt
124K /tmp
4,0K /root
134M /lib
504K /dev
119M /home
4,0K /mnt
22M /boot
4,0K /cdrom
4,0K /srv
0 /sys
317M /var
6,2M /sbin
2,1G /usr
16K /lost+found
2,8G /


317M /var is this normal???

It's probably yer package cache.


sudo apt-get autoremove

[pjalegria]

still 317M /var after "sudo apt-get autoremove"...

Then that's the best you can do. /var stores the package cache (more specifically /var/cache/apt/archives/). If you want to delete the debs there, there shouldn't be any problems outside of having to download them again if they are needed.
