can someone please help me solve this issue i dont kno when it started just realise the 2gigs were almost all gone used cute explorer and found files i uninstalled still there in "opt" i believe taking up room.

thanks in advance guys

hmmm... not a clue whats going on but do you have rootsh installed?
if so try running

sudo gainroot
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade -y
apt-get clean
apt-get autoclean
apt-get auto remove

yea i got rootsh installed. did it recently to see if i cud clean out the 2gigs of memory assigned for installing stuff bcuz it seems there are a couple files in their that are not supposed to be there anymore. btw what do the comands do exactly. thanks

im using midnight commander now to go directly into the opt folder and delete files. is that cool? bcuz i was about to do some deleting then i realised i didnt know how and midnight commander is so "unorganised" btw im a noob so bare with me. didn't install any apps from devl though.

"apt-get update" will update the local metadata detailing what applications are available in the repositories.

"apt-get upgrade -y" will upgrade any installed applications with newer versions (the -y is optional and just avoids it prompting you as to whether or not to proceed).

"apt-get clean" will remove any downloaded package archives. Once the package is installed, the downloaded file is no longer needed. The Application Manager does this automatically after installing, but you'll need to do it manually if you're using apt-get directly.

"apt-get autoclean" does the same as "apt-get clean", but only removes package archives which are obsolete (no longer in the repositories). Having already run "apt-get clean", it's pointless to run this one.

"apt-get autoremove" (note, there's actually no space between auto and remove) will remove any packages which are no longer needed. These are applications/libraries which were automatically installed because of dependencies, but are no longer required.

I'd add to this list "apt-get -f install" which will install any missing dependencies, which should fix the broken packages issue you have.

why is this sort of problems only happened to the newbies N900 users? My N900 never got that issues and even it does I end up fixing it or just reflash it. If you installed unstable apps you'll end up with problems. So just be real careful when you decided to click the Install button.

Reflash and stop downloading apps if you don't know what you're doing.

well all the apps i installed were in extras n from the ovi store so i assumed i was safe.

If you are new to a system it might take awhile before you are comfortable with it. He wasn't negative about the problem.. so shouldn't you. Some times this things happens.

@RenaldoTT: I am not sure but you could try "dpkg --configure -a" also.
