[clue-tech] ext3 missing disk space?

Something strange happened today.  I have an ext3 filesystem and I  
deleted a directory that was about 118 gigs in size ( database  
stuff ).  And the command finished instantly.  Sure enough the  
directory is now gone, however 'df' still reports all that disk space  
being used!

Any ideas how to get this free space back?
