Defragmentation utility for ext2 partition does exist. It is called
'defrag' :-). The latest version I know is defrag-0.73-2.

But be VERY careful with it. If smth goes wrong with your system when this
utility is working over some partition, this partition may be lost
completely and you'll have to format it via 'mkfs -t ext2'. You will
hardly be able to save some information from it. This happened to me once
and I never use this utility since that time. :-(

The number you get after fsck checks the partition really indicates the
defragmentation of your partition, but usually it is about several per
cent, so nothing to worry about.
