I have a folder with 40 GB of dozens of directories and stuff, and I want to see the exact size of the root folder in bytes ..
I have tried using this, but it shows the size in kilobytes:
du -s foldername
I want to remove all the .jpg files from my Music folder in order to save room. My Music folder contains subfolders, and I would like to know if there is a command to remove all the .jpg files from all these folders regardless of their level. Thanks for your help!
I've been told to go to ~/.ssh and, actually, I did cd ~/.ssh and I got into it.
However, I'm wondering: what does the ~ mean in this context?
Every certain amount of time, Ubuntu checks my filesystems and it creates several empty "lost+found" folders.
Can I disable this feature? Is there any way that Ubuntu deletes automatically these folders if they are empty?
Is there any manner to hide this folder on NFS?
I would like the user to have full rights on this folder (as well as all sub-directories and files in it):
~/.blabla
currently owned by root.
I have found numerous posts (in this forum and elsewhere) on how to do this for files but I can't find a way to do it for whole folders.
