--- Comment #5 from Bzzz <b...@gmx.net> --- I can clearly see that it doesn't find anything, so something's completely broken. Moreover, an index-based search tool is already available, it's called locate and it has been working fine for the past two decades. There's no need for a replacement that's actually worse than the original. Furthermore, either baloo it is working "immediately" so it decreases performance on every file system operation (I don't want that), or it is delayed (as locate), so that it cannot give accurate results shortly after copying and moving stuff (I don't want that as well). I'm especially opposed to huge collections of metadata that are useless when searching for file contents, or use as much space as the source files and take as long to search as well. Just because disk space and CPU time is cheap nowadays it doesn't mean we have to waste it. I've been a full-time Linux user for only 7 years now. If I'm unable to use this fine piece of software, how on earth can you sell this to a newbie? A basic search function in the default file manager that needs configuration to work? That's as absurd as the already mentioned search tool in Windows 7. The Linux community may copy stuff that works well on other OSes, but nothing that is broken by design...and baloo is just that, I suspect. But please, prove me wrong, tell me how to configure and use a search box that works as reliable as the dolphin search before the "can't find stuff in hidden folders anymore" bug 269367, which is only 5 years old and still unresolved. Basically when we had this Nepomuk crap that was relatively easy to disable, offering a pure and working search function from dolphin instead. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
