1. Delete stuff you don't want.
2. 'sudo apt-get clean' helps clean out the package cache
3. Use a utility to show you where all your space is tied up. baobab is one such utility (filelight is good for KDE users). Make sure you check /var/log for huge files (i.e logs that got spammed and ballooned in size).

Clear browser cache and uninstall old kernels will free up lots of space

Installing and using bleachbit will also help clean up.

Can you help with this problem?
