[Bug 1] Re: Microsoft has a majority market share

2008-10-27 Thread Philip Ganchev
I think the bug is incorrectly stated in the bug report. It does not matter if Microsoft, or Apple or Google or another large company's products have the majority "market share". The bug is that most of the software used is not free (libre) software. This can be broken down into several smaller

Joe, I sent you my .beagle/Indexes/FileSystemIndex/FileAttributesStore.db . Unfortunately the log file has been erased because I waited so long to reply, and beagle apparently creates a new file every time my laptop comes back from sleep. The good news is that the crash seems to be gone after I u

The crash only occurs with the "files" backend: beagled --backend files --fg --debug I set only the directory /etc/sound/events to be indexed. No IndexHelper log file is created, and the current-Beagle log file (~/.beagle/Log/current-Beagle) mentions "/etc" only on the second-last line:

Beagled stops crashing if I remove /etc from the list of directories to index, in addition to my home directory. If any subdirectory of /etc is listed , beagled crashes as above. Other root subdirectories, such as /usr have no effect either way. -- Beagle crash on startup https://bugs.launchpad

Of course, you are right that the reported address boundary error is Fish-specific. It's interesting that this bug does not occur on my other Ubuntu 6.10 box, which should have the same versions of Beagle and other Mono apps and libraries. But the content that is indexed is different. ** Attachm

I think size 14 or bigger for both the labels and the text box would be better for desktop and lapop displays. This would make more certain that the label and the typed username are readable. This is important. For small screens like PDAs there are separate projects (GPE, Familiar, etc) that can
