Starting four days ago, the kernel sends bogus i_mode messages after automatic beagle indexing, like this:

Can anyone tell me what this means, and is it a cause for concern?
What it means is that Beagle has serious problems, something which several people on this list seem to have a very great difficulty in understanding.
I'm afraid this may be independent of whatever problems beagle may have; I suspect a hardware problem, maybe (and if so, hopefully only) bad RAM, though I ran memtest for seven hours (15 full passes) without getting a single error. Still, it might be helpful to find out why beagle is eliciting these messages (and continues to do so).
Delete beagle. It's junk.
You'll probably want to file a bug. I haven't seen that before. Thanks.
I will, perhaps it will generate useful feedback. Steve Berman -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
