No error > reported, nothing. Very frustrating. I'm missing a few steps along the way :-) If I'm in Neon and plug in a USB (you are talking about removable media), the USB appears under /media/myusername/myusb or similar. This won't be indexed by baloo and if you search dolphin will give you a prompt like: https://bugsfiles.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=137170 By contrast if baloo has indexed (has been told to index) the folders, dolphin "knows" this and will give a prompt with more options: https://bugsfiles.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=137169 If you go to /media/myusername/myusb and do a Ctrl-F to search, dolphin will search "there and then" through the subfolders and present the results. It's doing the scanning "there and then" so it's slower and you might have to wait for the results to be presented. Dolphin relies on a process "filenamesearch" to do this work. In order to see the results, you *will* need to select the "Filename", rather than "Content", option and "From Here (myusb)" rather than "Your Files". I can say, in Neon, the above "magic" works but let's look one step at a time... -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
