my backside is pretty hairy, what ya suppose that's suppost to mean?

. anyway ill try a couple of suggestions and post back.
currently running kde4 fully updated.
tried the console and filelight, error on the cli and it looked like the filelight was going to choke (no funny remarks tex) but it did finally come together. here is the errors:
[loudog@localhost ~]$ $ find /home -size +1G
bash: $: command not found
[loudog@localhost ~]$ filelight

so filelight is fine for my needs. i discovered the .local/share/trash had 15gb on it and lo and behold i had a hidden file of questionable material that was getting much bigger than i had thought

.
im marking the post solved thanks all
