People go on endlessly about whether Linux is suitable for desktop purposes. Well, to be so, it needs to have content indexing.
Hi Randall, I have no problem with these utilities being available, I just think they should be /optional/, not installed by default. And the present arrangement is not all that 'harmless' either. I can remember at least three or four incidents ... until I figured out what was going on ... where my time and attention were diverted from working productively to suddenly troubleshooting and diagnosing an unexpected sudden drop in system responsiveness with a sustained grinding at the hard disk. Until I caught on, I was worried that my app was going to freeze or X would crash or /something/ along those lines was happening and my filesystem might get trashed or corrupted. I say make them available but optional instead of 'springing it on them' without warning. regards, Carl -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
