Ubuntu 10.10 warns me about low disk space even when there are about 2 GiB free. For me "low disk space" is 50 MiB or less as I use to use my disks at 100% capacity. The warning could be useful for me if it was warning only when I am really running nearly OUT of space. Can this be configured?
Ubuntu – configure low disk space warning to a lesser threshold

The notification is part of the gnome-settings-daemon, you can change its behaviour in gconf-editor. To do so:
gconf-editor
free_size_gb_no_notify
to0.05
(for ~50MB) or whatever you'd prefer.There is also a bunch of other settings in there you may find helpful.
