** Description changed:
I'm running Ubuntu Edgy
When I'm trying to remove many files from a folder with the command
rm test_displacement/*.png
it says
bash: /bin/rm: Argument list too long
Nevertheless, the command
rm test_displacement/1641.png
works fine
+ also, the following works:
+ cd test_displacement; rm *.png
+
In the folder test_displacement there are 5002 files and 5001 of them are of
the form *.png
The file system is ext2
