Title:
  eee pc 701 can't be updated as disk leaks

Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: update-manager

  I installed lucid beta 1 to the internal 4GB flash disk of my Asus EEE
  PC 701. Since last year I have successfully run ubuntu karmic and
  lucid on my EEE PC by plugging in a 320GB WD Passport USB Disk.
  However now that I have a USB 3G Huawei modem I want to use Ubuntu in
  the car where there is no table to support my USB disk. Today I
  checked my disk space and found 67% used with df or 1.1GB free of 4GB
  internal disk. The I ran update manager which downloaded 280MB of
  updates including the new kernel image. After updating successfully
  and restarting I found half of the free disk space had disappeared.
  This is mystifying as the terminal window in update manager kept
  showing packages being replaced. I tried using Computer Janitor to see
  if I could find the leaking disk space but it only found 16MB of
  kernel headers. Clearly the Ubuntu Netbook Edition is not a viable
  system if it cannot be upgraded on typically netbooks with flash
  disks.
