Description Felix E. Klee 2007-03-30 22:28:39 UTC
I need an option in beagle that allows me to disable faster indexing, always.  At the moment beagled seems to start faster indexing at leaster under the following circumstances:

* The X screensaver is on (I haven't tested that).

* I have switched to a different virtual console under LINUX.

The thing is, even with the screen saver on or when on a different virtual console, the system may be busy other important tasks whose performance gets affected negatively by beagle.  In fact, when the screensaver is on, this doesn't even mean that the user doesn't even interact with the machine anymore: I sometimes run two X servers concurrently, or I switch to text mode to do certain tasks.

Can you start beagled with DISPLAY environment variable unset and see if that changes the scenario ? Its not a fix, but just confirming what is happening.

Checked in the backend part of this, r3615.  Will do the beagle-settings UI part next.

Just checked in the UI half of this, r3616.
