Which version had the fix applied? Bruce, I see you mentioned gamin-0.1.7 in your email; was that the version that you saw with the problem? Julie, could you run "yum search gamin" and then "yum info <whatever the name of the gamin package is>"? One or the other of those should tell you what version you're using.

I do like your idea of a config file change, though. Maybe comment it out by default, with a description along the lines of "KDE users -- add this if you see gam_server using excessive resources." Julie, are you still seeing this issue? If you applied a workaround, would you be willing to revert it to test out a new config file? > > Daniel Barry _______________________________________________ Gamin-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gamin-list
