[ubuntu-in] Strange problem with too many jpg files in one folder

[Ramnarayan.K]

Hi

I accidently deleted a folder of images( using shift+del = direct
delete not to trash)

To recover them i used recoverjpg

The problem is that that recoverjpg recovered many many images. The
drive it was reading from was 200 gig which had tonnes of images,
thumbnails etc on it . Recoverjpg looks and tries to recover deleted
filed.

I had been using various image managers to create thumbnails and such
thumbnails are in lakhs

recoverjpg placed the recovered files in my /home/foouser/ location

Now this damn folder does not open because there are too many files in that

I am un able to see and access this folder and any tool from command
line gives up with the arguement

unable to execute /bin/mv: Argument list too long

whether is mv or chmod i get the same error message

My problem is that there are too many thumbnails under 100 kb - i can
safely del this but don't know a specific command that will do this

I need to target specific sizes in the mv / rm command so that enmasse
i can delete what is nonsense and focus on the files i lost which will
/ should be over 800 kb

any idea how this can be achieved

thanks
