ok i want to test the root (linux system) drive but the test that i have
done so far dont show what is taking the space. My home is on a separate
partition.

It is only in the morning after the computer has been on over night and
when i come back to it in the morning it is then it starts filling up the
system / partition until it is full or i restart it, then it is good until
the next morning. it not /var and wont be /home.
