Don't know anything about sound cards, sorry - I don't have one, and
probably never will.

1) You download heaps of junk from the web/net
2) You run a huge mail spool
3) You run a huge newsspool
4) You have multiple copies of the kernel source scattered all over your
   disk
5) You do something else stupid which eats hard disk space.

Under normal, sane operation, 2 gig should be heaps for any home Linux
system.
