This is an article about Linux tools for monitoring your disk usage,
these tools tend to heavily favour KDE as three of them are plug-ins
to the Konqueror browser and file manager. I use all three: KDirStat;
Filelight; FSView  (they all give graphical presentations and data
analysis of files in their different ways ), I find them excellent.
There is also KDiskFree that gives disk space analysis of your
partitions. If anyone uses Krusader , the file manager, there is an
embedded disk usage tool that is similar to KDirStat but not quite as
good.
One of the reasons I am not moving up to KDE 4 from KDE 3.5 is that
there are so many excellent tools, including developer tools, that
have not yet been ported to KDE 4. :
