Sounds like the df command would be a good place to start.

There's also a utility in KDE, which I believe is called KDiskFree (which is what df stands for by the way). Not that that helps much if you're using Gnome, but still....

df -h will give you what you need.

From a console you can use the "df -h" command as others have already suggested. From GNOME you can use "gtop" which will show you a list of running processes, memory usage, and filesystem usage.
