[nmglug] disk space again

[BrianO'Keefe]

I checked out / with ls -l:
dr-xr-xr-x 476 root root     0 2007-04-02 14:02 proc
yet when I run $ sudo du -h --max-depth=1 / I see that:
808M    /proc
And in Nautilus I see that a KDECore directory is the culprit. What is
this thing? I'm using Ubuntu with Gnome. Do I need this directory?
Thanks
