That fstab looked pretty normal, I think the next bit you pasted is more relevant...

Wow! That's pretty full and looks like your problem has been found.

The disk free (df) command told you that, and the disk used (du) command can tell you where all that space is being used. An easy way to get a full summary is:

du -shx /*

This may take some time to complete execution since it needs to run through the whole device. My guess is that your recent software installation was a lot larger than you expected and /usr or /var is probably huge now.

/var could be huge because of other software as well, though, since variable state data is saved there -- things like database storage files, logs and the like that tend to grow with time.

Since you are using a logical volume you can add another physical drive and extend the volume to include [part of] it. Or even better, you can move /var to its own partition if its the culprit (my usual approach).
