I have no problem with beagle, and I find it a nice way to graphically search for things that I have misplaced. The only time I have trouble with it taking up a lot of my system is during the first run on a clean install, after that it waits until midnight to update its index on my desktop, which has a Intel Cereron D 3.33 Ghz processor and 512 MB ram 2 gig swap. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
