I'm getting closer now - Ive figured out how to enable strigi (courtesy of a Ubuntu page), and I'm now getting the hover window with the blue background on jpegs, and PDFs. For office documents I get the hourglass (or whatever the new busy icon is called). The info for PDFs is not complete at all.

Okay, closer yet - using strigiclient I've started an index-run of my home-directory, which has caused blue windows to be produced when I hover over office documents - the meta-data are not shown and the preview is no good, it's just a binary representation of the doc.

I've completed indexing about 30K documents/files, but PDFs and office docs are still not showing meta-data. I'm more than a little hesitant about beginning to report bugs on issues such as this - I simply don't know what is supposed to work and what isn't. For instance, I tried running "strigi" via "ssh -X" which didn't work (presumably because "strigi" is somehow KDE internal?) That the preview for an office file is just a char dump must be a bug though, but am I wrong in thinking this whole thing is somewhat incomplete? More questions: How do I enable strigi for all users (of a machine)? How about indexing of shared folders? -- Per Jessen, Zürich (21.3°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
