I installed KAT from the packages provided by Novell. When I tried to run it, the assistant told me that I need a kernel with Inotify. Anybody here that knows how to get Inotify (likly a SuSE rpm) installed here on my SuSE 9.3 system? I don't want to recompile my kernel so is there another option?
That's odd. What I recall is that it told me some capabilities would be unavailable without the notification module. Presumably it will not be able to detect when files or directories that have been indexed have changed and automatically and incrementally reflect those changes. In any event, Kat will certainly index your files without Inotify. Whether any given user considers Kat "ready for prime time" or not obviously depends on their criteria. I know I've gotten far further with this build than any of the others I've tried to date. As I mentioned in another thread, I'm rather strongly motivated to get Kat working, since I have a big pile of documents that I have never bothered to organize or index in any way.
