So looking at your computer, I see that you've allocated a total of 43G 
for your Ubuntu install:

root at user-desktop:/home/user# df -h
Filesystem            Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda1              43G   38G  3.7G  92% /

And your home directory is using 32Gb, which leaves another 6Gb outside 
of your directory, which is probably the Ubuntu install itself and other 
miscellania. Your problem seems to be more that you haven't 
allocated/partitioned any of the rest of your drives.
