For future reference (after reading the post above)

Show filesystem usage:

~$ df -h

Show all files/directories consuming space:

~$ du -kx / | sort -nr | more

Show directories in current location:

~$ du -hc | sort -h
~$ du -hc --max=1 | sort -h #This limits your directory listing to one level

List files in directory:

~$ ls -larth

List files in directory sorted by size, ascending:

~$ ls -lSrh

List and then delete any .log file older than 7 days:

~$ find . -type f -name "*.log" -mtime +7 -print -exec rm -fr {} \;

~$ apt-get autoremove
