I've been using reloaded (kde 4.2.3) version of opensuse 11.1, and when I get info with tune2fs, it hadn't showed any "check interval". So, I can say that opensuse has no default value for "check interval". After I set the interval to 15 day, I got this:

When I was using ubuntu, it doesn't allow you to cancel disk check in boot time, which is sometime quite disturbing if want a quick reboot. NTFS is also using journaling file system,but after a improper shutdown to the system, it always results bad situations for me. Are there any difference between the journaling system of EXT3 and NTFS?
