Re: How to shut off org.freedesktop.trackers
Thanks everyone! I went into Sessions and Startup _> Autostart and killed all the trackers in there. It seems to have solved it! So far, no tracker legend on the log like it used to do. Let see if it permanently solves it Thanks JP On Sun, Oct 13, 2019 at 2:44 PM sixpack13 wrote: > maybe not the best solution, but it works for me > > gsettings set org.freedesktop.Tracker.Miner.Files crawling-interval -2 > gsettings set org.freedesktop.Tracker.Miner.Files enable-monitors false > > - the above fetched from this list some time ago. question was the same: > How to shut up tracker ? - > > sudo sed -i > 's/X-GNOME-Autostart-enabled=.*/X-GNOME-Autostart-enabled=false/' > /etc/xdg/autostart/tracker-*.desktop; > > the last command needs to be done every time tracker gets updated ! > The first both only once. > And the last command does NOT prevent that tracker gets started during > login, but it stops after some time. > see after some seconds: ps aux|grep -i tracker > > I'm currently NOT sure what tracker stops. > I didn't dig in it that deep, but Tom Horsley did... > > extra: > as user ! > rm -rf ~/.cache/tracker && ln -s /tmp/ ~/.cache/tracker > rm -rf ~/.local/share/tracker && ln -s /tmp/ ~/.local/share/tracker > > why ? > /tmp is tmpfs and lives in my RAM, so no extra writing on my ssd ! > > btw: there are some more entries in ~/.cache I link to /tmp (on my single > user box) > > ~/.cache/thunderbird > ~/.cache/mozilla/firefox > ___ > users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org > To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org > Fedora Code of Conduct: > https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ > List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines > List Archives: > https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org > -- -- /\_/\ |O O| pepeb...@gmail.com Javier Perez While the night runs toward the day... m m Pepebuho watches from his high perch. ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org

maybe not the best solution, but it works for me gsettings set org.freedesktop.Tracker.Miner.Files crawling-interval -2 gsettings set org.freedesktop.Tracker.Miner.Files enable-monitors false - the above fetched from this list some time ago. question was the same: How to shut up tracker ? - sudo sed -i 's/X-GNOME-Autostart-enabled=.*/X-GNOME-Autostart-enabled=false/' /etc/xdg/autostart/tracker-*.desktop; the last command needs to be done every time tracker gets updated ! The first both only once. And the last command does NOT prevent that tracker gets started during login, but it stops after some time. see after some seconds: ps aux|grep -i tracker I'm currently NOT sure what tracker stops.

How to shut off org.freedesktop.trackers
HI How do I shut off the Freedesktop trackers? Right now they are filling up my logs with this message. Oct 13 10:12:38 pepewin.localdomain dbus-broker-launch[9415]: Activation request for 'org.freedesktop.Tracker1' failed. Oct 13 10:13:49 pepewin.localdomain dbus-broker-launch[9415]: Activation request for 'org.freedesktop.Tracker1' failed. Every few seconds I get one like that. I masked all the trackers because they were keeping the hard disk almost continuously in use (hdd light lit on all the time).

It was often installed by printer drivers and other network clients (e.g., home automation). Windows 10 has had several iterations of something resembling mDNS. You can't rely on it working after each update. Meanwhile, Apple Bonjour has a serious bug (due to missing quotes, it can used to run "C:\Programs" with full privileges, so if a bad guy can install malware as a regular use and call it "C:\Programs", they own your system. Bonjour is often banned from corporate networks, so if your network has Windows machines you should be prepared to use the "C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc\hosts" file. Editing this file does require administrative super-powers. -- George N.

There are other benefits. Learning DNS (if that's good for you). Working around lousy DNS servers from your ISP. Most things that you can connect to a LAN will use DNS to resolve addresses, *nearly* most modern things will use MDNS, a lot of simpler/older things will only use DNS. > You probably don't want to maintain a hosts file for all the > computers on your network, especially if you are using DHCP. I'd say that unless your IPs are fixed to always be the same addresses (whatever method is used), using the hosts file will be the cause of some problems. Using multiple hosts file (one on each PC) just increases the work required. > DNS is generally way overkill and more work to manage. For most people probably, and using BIND would be. Though there are smaller DNS servers that can read your hosts file, then serve that data to all the other computers on your LAN. If you have a decent modern router, it may be able to do all of this for you, anyway. -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1062.1.2.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon Sep 30 14:19:46 UTC 2019 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
