Since installing LINUX Mint 15 and replacing Windows XP on my 40 gB hard drive, I periodically receive a pop up window warning me that I am nearly out of available space on my hard drive. This morning it said I had "0 bytes remaining."
Although I am far from being a computer expert, I did get this information from the Terminal program after reading some similar postings on the Ubunto site.
Disk /dev/sda: 40.0 GB, 40007761920 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 4864 cylinders, total 78140160 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x00056be3

And here's some more information I harvested from my Terminal commands:

Can anyone guide me in the direction I need to go to remove this warning and free up whatever is bloated on my hard drive? Thanks.
