[opensuse] virtuoso, tracker, meta.db, and a full hard drive
Howdy everyone, Just wondering about what happened the last few days. Several times I found that my laptop was running a very high temperature, and the culprit was "virtuoso" on the system activity gui. So I would stop virtuoso, and/or log out of kde and then log back in, and things would seem to go along fine for a few hours. Then it would start up again. When I would hover the mouse over nepomuk in the system tray, it would say "File index service is not running." The last time it did this, I finally decided to go into nepomuk in the system settings and disable the nepomuk file indexer and the nepomuk email indexer. I had it indexing emails because I have been running mail to see if I like it. So I am wondering if this has something to do with kmail, because if I were only running thunderbird, I would not need the email indexer to be running. In any case, this morning before work I was going to check the latest news, and I opened up firefox and got this message that there was a problem with firefox security because my hard drive was full. So I checked the hard drive, and I found that the last 18 gigs that I had empty had been filled up. When I looked to see what it was, it was this: On /home/george/.cache/tracker, the following files show up: george@linux-o3ef:~/.cache/tracker> ls -l total 18452444 -rw-r--r-- 1 george users 11 Sep 26 20:17 db-locale.txt -rw-r--r-- 1 george users 2 Sep 26 20:17 db-version.txt -rw-r--r-- 1 george users 6 Sep 26 20:40 first-index.txt -rw-r--r-- 1 george users 10 Sep 26 20:40 last-crawl.txt -rw-r--r-- 1 george users 18884642816 Dec 3 18:27 meta.db -rw-r--r-- 1 george users 32768 Dec 3 18:30 meta.db-shm -rw-r--r-- 1 george users 10240000 Dec 3 18:29 meta.db-wal -rw-r--r-- 1 george users 11 Sep 26 20:17 miner-applications-locale.txt -rw-r--r-- 1 george users 0 Dec 2 16:49 no-need-mtime-check.txt.A4EVOW -rw-r--r-- 1 george users 0 Oct 10 21:20 no-need-mtime-check.txt.CEPBMW -rw-r--r-- 1 george users 352020 Sep 26 20:17 ontologies.gvdb So you see that meta.db is huge. So what is the general advice here? Should I ditch kmail so that I can run nepomuk indexer (for fast file searches which is actually very helpful) and also delete this meta.db database? Or are there some other ideas out there? -- George Olson Box #1: 12.2 | KDE 4.9.2 | AMD Phenom IIX4 | 64 | ATI Radeon HD 3300 | 16GB Box #2: 12.2 | KDE 4.9.1 | AMD Athlon X3 | 64 | nVidia C61 GeForce 7025 | 4GB Laptop: 12.2 | KDE 4.9.2 | Core i7-2620M | 64 | Intel HD Graphics 3000 | 8GB learning openSUSE and loving it -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
