HOWTO Beagle Installation

stalynx · Apprentice Joined: 03 Oct 2002 Posts: 162

I upgraded to Beagle 0.0.10 via cvs and I used this patch for a basic config system to add roots to index. IMHO w/o this patch Beagle is pretty much worthless, I hope the config system is committed soon. Also my hd comes to a crawl when it tries to index my videos. So much so I removed them to be indexed. I haven't tried mp3s but I would guess it would do the same. So right now Beagle can just index past web pages and some of my manga collection.

What mono version are you running? I have mono 1.1.7. I have experienced mono going crazy and taking 99% of my cpu usage.. but this is with very large directories with big files. I just try to avoid indexing them.

Also now it seems the indexer gets hung up on certain web pages.

Hi

Where do you get ebuild for beagle-0.0.10?

I think I read somewhere that mono 1.1.7 going crazy is a known problem ... I don't remember where (and beagle can't find it...)

I was waiting for the last release so I wouldn't need dbus. I installed it, and noticed it doesn't support Reiser4

The latest CVS (5th June) has the beagle-config in it, so thats good... no more patching.

However mono going crazy and taking 100% of the cpu still exists. This makes beagle totally unusable and I can't find any information about it or even similar problems...

Tis a real shame....

Does anyone know how to enable the thunderbird indexing? I've been reading around, and apparently the backend is in Beagle, but I can't figure out how to enable it. This would be a really useful feature I think for a lot of people.

Thanks

hello, i'm trying to install beagle. so far everything (mono 1.1.8, *-sharp) went fine but when it comes to compile beagle itself i get this error:

I think it has to do with the mono use flag for gmime which I cannot seem to enable for some strange reason; however it maybe be because of some wierdness related to the fact that I am running amd64. [I edited a few ebuilds to get around the keyword errors.

] If you get that use flag to work with Gmime let me know because I have the same error as you.

EDIT:
I defeated beagle, follow the instructions here https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-342563-highlight-beagle.html you have to comment out the line with mono to enable the use flag thn rebuild gmime and then build beagle.

Hi

I successfully installed beagle after quite a bit of effort and help from you all but either using best or beagle-equery the program does not seem to search for document files.

beagle-status gives

Scheduler:
Count: 2
Status: Waiting on empty queue
Scheduler queue is empty.

Beagle does search for and finds program files. e.g beagle-query firefox
file:///usr/share/applications/mozillafirefox.desktop
file:///home/lmcogs/.gnome2/panel2.d/default/launchers/hammer-006e16049c.desktop

Running 'best' I get this warning
best
Rendering
Done Rendering: .44s
WARN: GConf key '/apps/Beagle/keybindings/show_beagle' does not exist, using default.
DEBUG: Binding key 'F12' for '/apps/Beagle/keybindings/show_beagle'

Another question is how do you load it up on kde startup?

My system is kernel 2.6.11-r11 kde 3.4.1 beagle 0.0.10 mono-1.1.8 dbus 0.23.4
