The only tool to get all the matches from beagle is beagle-query (the command line version). The GUI tools like beagle-search, kerry, etc. have the limitation that they have to "meaningfully display" the results. They might not have the ability to show all types of results e.g. beagle-search does not display some kde backend results (forgot which one). As far as I know, kerry has trouble with handling email attachments, there might be more result types kerry does not handle. There could be a bug with kerry too. The best you can do is, run query which returns small number of results in kerry and beagle-query. Check which results are not shown in kerry, and file bugs about them in bugs.kde.org (there should an open bug about email attachments). I also noticed beagle-search returned only 37 out of 40. I think I missed that patch when I was merging patches from the svn trunk to 0.2.x branch. beagle-search is probably fixed in the trunk. - dBera -- ----------------------------------------------------- Debajyoti Bera @ http://dtecht.blogspot.com beagle / KDE fan Mandriva / Inspiron-1100 user _______________________________________________ Dashboard-hackers mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/dashboard-hackers
