Hello Simon,

to run, tracker only needs a DBus session. You can run a DBus session
without X, that would be something like:
dbus-daemon --session --print-adress (that will print the dbus address
on stdout)
then
export DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS=the_address_outputed_by_dbus
then
tracker-store

that would start tracker store then you'd need to start
tracker-miner-fs, where DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS is also set to the
right value. From there, you can run Sparql queries either by using
tracker-search, tracker-sparql or the DBus interface of tracker-store.

Cheers

Adrien
