comment Split log file by time range
A regex for grep could select a range of time from a log. But you will have to adjust it for each time range, for each day. Scripting this would give you more iterative control over the lines you process. Let me suggest Python.

comment How to organize a hard drive for Linux/Windows sharing?
Personally I had minimal issues with corrupt files on ntfs, albeit I agree it is not a format to choose if you can avoid it. FAT32 will work fine, barring the obvious file system limitations of 4GB per file, and 32GB per volume. Those are serious limitations on today's hardware.

Could you retry that command and paste the text output for us? df -Th. Can you include your kernel version uname -a too.

comment How do I solve periodic mouse lag on Linux Mint (MATE)?
Could you run a Live CD/USB for a while and see if the issue replicates. Also when it does happen, check dmesg for any system errors to help indicate possible causes or conflicts. Can you also tell us if you have compositing of any form enabled, and whether turning it off has any effect over a long period?

comment How to reroute sound from one hardware output to another using software?
Can you explain better when you say "internal speakers don't make any sound" and then you also say "I can still get sound from internal speakers"? Can you successfully recreate this scenario too?
