Change File Case Fast 
  We have a directory wity 2.2 million files, each having a long name consisting of letters and numbers. We need to rename them all to lower case FAST. I wrote a bash script to do it, but it processes files at about 1 per 30 seconds, I guess because the directory is so huge. (It runs fine on small... more »

What to do when a distro doesn't open folders found on the hdd, only the USB external ones? 
  One last "stoopid newb" question tonight, if I may ... I found that not all distros seem to be able to open my existing folders/partitions on the hdd. They _all_ so far have opened all the external USB drives but not the folders found right on the hdd itself. Was wondering why this might be so, anyone know?... more »

FAT32 vs NTFS, can Linux be used under NTFS? 
  I'm confused, I was told initially that Linux had to be put on a system that was formatted to FAT32. Yet I've seen posts about Linux under NTFS. One of the main reasons I've not switched from Windows to Linux, besides tons of Windows programs I use and learning curve, was precisely because of the file size issue re FAT32. I now have a hdd... more »

Ubuntu 9.10 
  I downloaded Kubuntu, Xubuntu and UbuntuStudio. They failed the Gateway test, almost. I did get Xubuntu to load as a LiveCD by turning off everything I could under "F6" and setting "F4" to "Safe Video" mode and let it run several hours in that mode before I decided to do an install into a blank partition. Then the fun began.... more »
