re 1: I can confirm that baobab by default displays wrong disk space
values, and that disabling the gvfs-fuse-daemon filesystem in
Preferences fixes this (the capacity is displayed correctly afterwards).
However, it seems that two weeks ago this was fixed in Gnome (see
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=528848)? In that case, the fix
will probably land in Ubuntu 8.04.2 or 8.10?

re 2: as far as I know, df reports only "usable" disk space - that's "free 
space minus reserved space". The reserved space can be set with tune2fs -m . By 
default, 5% of disk space is reserved (as emergency contingent for system tasks 
etc), which corresponds with the missing ~7 GB in your df output.
Baobab seems to display all free space; I have no idea how to make df display 
the same values.
