If you ever get an error logging into a linux GUI because the system is complaining that it ran out of space, here are some steps to free up some hard disk space to enable you to login (to do further cleaning)
1) At the GUI login , press Ctrl + Alt + F1 to login in terminal
2) Use df -h to check hard disk utilization information
3) Try deleting files in /home which you know can be deleted.
4) Try deleting files in /tmp
5) mount a USB drive and move some of your files in /home to the USB drive and delete them from the system.
