I think I have found the bugger:
3.9M /tmp/6pSImPjlkw/tmp/info
0 /tmp/6pSImPjlkw/tmp/system
2.7G /tmp/6pSImPjlkw/tmp
2.7G /tmp/6pSImPjlkw
ls -l gives a couple of tarballs which have been written yesterday, during
time of system backup. I think I can safely delete them now.
Additionally I have checked /etc/sysconfig/cron and found
CLEAR_TMP_DIRS_AT_BOOTUP set to "no" and MAX_DAYS_IN_TMP disabled. Changed
the latter to "3" and left the former disabled.

You are right. Actually I don't need much to be happy with my computer. No
games or videos or other fancy stuff. I did, however, install a couple of
games which came with KDE 3.3.1, against my principles. They will have added
some considerable MBs to the 3GB.

Thanks for your help anyway. I will see what comes out of my doings righ now.
Thanks again,
Guido
