Thanks a lot. Following your indication I was able to determine what the
problem was: About 2 weeks ago I had changed my /etc/ppp/options file,
uncommenting debug and writting kdebug 7 (!!!)
So, du -sx etcetera took me right away to
/var/log, where I found 
syslog 685016
debug 684696
kern.log 684592

rm them, rebooted and got back 2 gigs of space!
Lesson: BE very carefull implementing kdebug level 7 in /etc/ppp/options
Thanks again,
Antonio.
