Can someone please explain to me what's going on with /dev/sda6? I
couldn't log into GNOME after my reboot yesterday, and when I asked for
a df listing in the console, I got this. Shouldn't there be 4GB

camille ~ # df -h

you have space left, but the inodes are all used up.
Typical problem for fs like extX.
How did you come to that conclusion? Default reserved space is 5%. 5%
of 78G is 3.9GB. Exactly the amount the OP is "missing" (df -h is
rounding the values, you don't get exact number, so here we can say
3.9GB == 4GB.)
