Linux uses a swap partition, a piece of the hard disk itself set aside by the system for receiving page-swapping.
However, if you have more than 2-3 GiB of RAM on your desktop, you probably want need to make use of virtual memory at all in Linux.
The "paging file" is already a form of virtual memory. There is no way to use a paging file in the same way as you would normal RAM, as hard drives are hundreds of times slower than RAM.
For Linux, use the 'mv' command, which is a rename
It uses the swap. The swap is a dedicated partition and not a file.
ext3 is the default file system for Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
if meant by increasing paging file memory in windows, by increasing this you are increasing the amount of memory used for programs, Microsoft advises not to fool around with the file, however if you have knowledge of programs you use and memory stored; you will be able to increase or decrease this file as necessary.
If you are referring to the xorg.conf file, it can be operated with no InputDevice sections at all, and will use a "best-guess" to determine the input devices instead.
No. While most O/S use the hard drive to store temp data as memory, there is only one page file. The most efficient method is to increase your page file to 5 percent of your hard drive size and make the two values the same. This way the O/S will keep that area open for paging and not Fragment the paging file
None. It is possible to operate Linux without a swap file or partition.
chmod +x is the command to set the executable flag in Linux but, Linux does not use exe files.
ext4
By configuring the bootloader to use Windows as the default menu option instead of Linux. Refer to documentation on how to do this.
if the file is allready runnable you can type in the terminal: ./filename
