Description Daniel Naber 2005-09-11 17:39:32 UTC

I installed openSuse with KDE as desktop environment. I noticed that beagle
wasn't installed by default (why not?), so I installed it using Yast. Under
"Configure desktop searching and indexing" I checked the box that says to run
beagle at startup (or rather it was selected by default I think). However,
beagle won't start when you log in to KDE the next time, i.e. F12 doesn't start
best and if you start it manually it will complain that the beagle daemon isn't
running.

Reopening this and targetting it at 10.1.  The idea being that we might not want
to start beagle by default on KDE, but it should still be possible to run it if
the user wants by selecting the checkbox.

We would need to patch beagle to set the default value depending on what desktop
environment was being run, rather than assuming true.

we will take care of that with a KDE package

Comment 4 Stephan Binner 2006-01-16 09:34:34 UTC

10.1 will come with KDE frontend, configuration module and use of KDE startup mechanism.

I couldn't find such stuff in 10.1 beta1. If it is not in an obvious place, please mention it in the release notes as beagle is becoming quite popular.

It's started by default and displays an icon in the system tray. If it's not there then you can start it via "System/File System/Desktop Search (Kerry Beagle)".
