i have been having quicksilver issues ever since upgrading to os
10.7 / lion. i've tried reinstalling several times, and have also
replicated this on another machine. googling has thrown up no
solutions, so i'm presuming i've just go wrong settings somewhere.
here's what's going on:

1. first time i setup and use quicksilver all works fine.
2. if i quit qs or restart my computer then when i start it up again,
call up qs by control-space, then when i start typing *no text appears
in qs* but it does appear to be receiving input because if i hit enter
then it opens something up.
3. however, since i don't see what i'm typing, and it doesn't trigger
the list of things it might open, i have no idea what it's going to
open. it also behaves differently from normal, i.e. typing "post" does
not get "postbox" as the first item, it gets itunes!

i've tried resetting preferences, uninstalling, reinstalling, deleting
caches in ~/library/caches, deleting shelves in /application support,
etc. etc. etc. also tried this on another computer and it's the same
behaviour.
i've tried not changing any of the default preferences.
i've checked and i'm not running any of the known problematic
applications.
the only way to reset it to proper behaviour is to quit quicksilver,
start it up again manually, choose "reset preferences" and go through
the whole thing again.

anyone have any ideas what's going on here?
