The unstable PPA comes with a version of Tracker from the 0.9 series, also quite old. Not sure which version will be packaged for the next Ubuntu release, hope it's from the 0.12 series. > Ubuntu 10.04 Gnome: System>Preferences>Search and indexing>Indexing > Preferences>Locations tab. > Recursively indexed: /home/johnb/Desktop > Non-Recursively indexed: /home/johnb/ > On the "Indexing" tab i have checked the box "Monitor file and directory > changes" > Am i right in thinking that the effect of these settings together is to > index changes only on "Desktop" and not index changes to > directories,files and folders "/home /johnb"? > With that configuration, you will have everything under /home/johnb/Desktop indexed and monitored, every file or directory within it.

The binary is called "tracker-extract" so you need to put a whitespace between "tracker-extract" and "-f". Also, ensure the tracker-extract file is in /usr/libexec. It may be in /usr/lib, depending on how it was packaged. -- Aleksander _______________________________________________ tracker-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/tracker-list
