Any help will be :D

Try this:
find /home/ -size +5 -exec ls -lahg {} \;

I need some help with listing home directories that are greater than i given size. I have tried find /home -type d -size +5k and find /home -type d -size +5k -iname * Both without much success... find will not calculate folder sizes (as you've already seen). You'll need to use du and then filter the output. Perchance something like: du | grep -v \/ | sort -n This should give you the directories (in the current dir) w/o the sub directories but include the calculated size of the directory sorted numerically on the output. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

This should give you the directories (in the current dir) w/o the sub
directories but include the calculated size of the directory sorted
numerically on the output.
You can do something similar with a pair of recursive du:
du -S ./ | grep -E ^[5-9][0-9]{4}[^0-9]
du -S ./ | grep -E ^[0-9]{6,}
The first command will give you a listing of all directories with
5-9k of files. The second gives you all directories with
10k+ of files. Neither size includes subdirectories, so if you want
sub-directories included in the math, just take out the '-S' option.

Still, they are sorted by size.
