Thanks for everybody's patience. Even though I haven't yet resolved the
issue, I did pick up a lot of useful tips and commands, etc.
Right now I want to find a partition manager that I already have on CD
somewhere, or try to burn a new one. (It seems that k3b is failing to burn
discs. I might try burning a disc by command-line.) First I want to resize my
root partition, then make the switch to Devuan; although I might reinstall
Debian first, for sake of continuity.
By the way, now kmail crashes whenever I try to use keyboard shortcuts to
reply to emails. I have to choose reply from the menu instead.
On reboot, some space is reclaimed: free space moved back up to 140+ mb; and
now I am at 123 mb. The general tendency, however, is a steady and
incremental loss of space.
I suppose that I can still try to resolve this issue after reinstallation.

Re-install now, burning to many brain cells . The free space is way to
small, my Debian occupied space in root is 16 gb out of 20gb. I thought
it was a waste when I set this box up.
I hestitate to offer more info..what about swap?

Well, the file itself is 170.8 kb. As to the content, there are a lot of
items, but it all seems to be ordinary processes. Should I be looking for
something in particular?
Bill All I want is to track down the source of this
issue, resolve it,
then resize my root partition and change over to Devuan. And I can
change to 64-bit later, as well, if that will work. My most pressing
problem at the moment is why I am losing space on my root partition.
Speaking of which: after a couple more hours (during most of which I
have been offline, as I was attending to stuff in the real world), I
am now down to 60.3 mb of free space. If you have followed these
threads, I was at something like 165 mb a few hours ago, and 200+ mb
a day or so ago.
have you looked at ~/.xsession-errors ?
