My gripes with beagle are just two: 1) It tends to use quite a lot of disk space (at least during its initial run) even it the disk is almost full, resulting in 100% disk usage. 2) It runs even when my laptop is running on battery shortening battery life. I don't think that either point is something that most users have problems with/care about so my solution to my problems was: I removed all beagle packages from my system and added *beagle* to /etc/zypper/locks. I'm running factory. Ciao Joerg -- Joerg Mayer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that works.
