Even /usr/lib/cron/run-crons has the following: # # Don't run jobs on laptops, that are AC-offline # if test -x /usr/bin/on_ac_power ; then on_ac_power -q if [ "$?" = "1" ]; then exit 0 fi fi Isn't the beagle process triggered by such a cronjob? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Do you have a compelling reason or stats to go one way over another? (BTW Mono has a wake up bug causing more wakeups that it should currently that makes this extra painful) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I just see beagle using my CPU and disk although I'm on battery power. Isn't it the same like with updating man db? Wouldn't it make sense to tell people to enable this option in control center if they like the indexing when on battery power? I mean, although a laptop is a mobile device, it still runs at AC power for a longer time. Can't we start indexing immediately after we switched from battery to AC power to get the index up to date? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

This seems like a reasonable compromise. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

It won't change existing settings, though, so you'll need to change it by hand in beagle-settings or nuke your ~/.beagle/config directory (and lose other settings). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
