Sorry, I forgot the disk usage:

Filesystem         1k-blocks                Used available 
Use%        Mounted on
/dev/hda6           1492311         1416797              0 100%        /
/dev/hdc               556054           556054              0 100%        /mnt

Thats what It said before I removed the files too.

du -s /tmp:
9       /tmp

du -s /var/tmp:
1       /var/tmp

df /tmp  and  df /usr  gave the same results as above for /dev/hda6


When I was at /root ]#  I did an ls -al and that's where I found the core 
files.  I also have a personal login I use instead of root.  I 
checked  /usr  and there are only directories in there.




df SOME_DIRECTORY

will list the used/free space of the partition that directory happens to
be on. This means for example that if you have one big partition for
all, "df /tmp" and "df /usr" should produce the same output.

If you want to check how much space a particular directory uses, cd into
that directory and use "du" (stands for "disk usage").

Now, there shouldn't be anything you need to delete in all of /usr, as
an ordinary user does not have write access to it. Hence, the crash
shouldn't have produced any "extra" files in /usr - *unless* you've been
working as "root" all the time (i.e. also when doing the GIMP work you
mentioned), which is a bad thing for this very reason.

So, to be able to help you further, I need to know at the very minimum
the output of "df" as well as the output of "du -s /tmp" and
"du -s /var/tmp". The last two will tell how much space those two
directories use.

Cheerio,

Thomas
