Which process is it?  If it's the beagle-build-index process, that's
the system-wide crawler that runs once a day.  Unfortunately the way
openSUSE works out of the box is to run that daily cron jobs are run
15 minutes after you first install the distro and then at that time
every day.  Since most of us install our machines in the middle of the
day, this is usually the *most* inconvenient time to run these jobs.
There was a bug open about that before, but I can't find it now.

Anyway, you can edit the /etc/sysconfig/cron file to set it to run in
the middle of the night, which I strongly recommend.  Remember to run
SuSEconfig afterward.

You should also upgrade to 0.2.16.3, in the openSUSE build service and
available from here:

   http://software.opensuse.org/download/Beagle/

which will use a lot less memory when building the indexes.

If it's the beagled or beagle-helper processes, these are the per-user
session processes which actually handle searches and index user data.
You can't run those while the user is logged out, but again the
updated version above will be much better behaved.  If it's still a
problem afterward, you can follow up by me privately and we'll see if
we can track down the issue.

Thanks,
Joe
