It happened after I wrote and deleted very large files (~750MB) a
few times in my home dir.
Then I logged out and I relogged in as root to check what happened
and "df" shown everything was right again:

/dev/sda5 2193082 320122 1761550 15% /home

...strange...

Bye.

P.S. Yes, I was the only one using the computer.
