Re: [opensuse] where do I turn tracker off at?

* j debert <jdebert@xxxxxxxxxx> [01-01-70 11:34]:
First, Beagle came along and made a hog of itself. Then Nepomuk came
along and just kept everything to itself, letting me have a
microscopic scrap of resources every once in a great while. Now,
tracker shows up and hijacks my system when I'm working.

ranting removed .... (mostly, jeeshhh)

I want tracker to stop. I don't need it. It is severely interfering
with work.

So, Does Anyone Know Where, in which file, is the tracker gang started
up? And if I delete it, will it go kamikaze and break the system or
other apps, like so (too!) many other rpm-installed apps do?

Have you no control?

rpm -e tracker

appears to be a gnome application, but you give no information about your
system and software base and this is the best my crystal ball will do on
such short notice (might be better in a week or two).

Have you done any research into your problem that might reveal the
location of the program, it's configuration files, ... ? You might just
be able to help yourself

And BTW, why is it that beagle, nepomuk, tracker, et cetera are always
installed and set to run at the most inopportune times by default?
There's a trend here that suggests that someone's been reading way too
much BOFH and that there will be many more of those hijacking
searcher/indexers to come.

Guess you do have no control. :^)

ps: please make an effort to control your ranting. It is not very
flattering and doesn't instill the desire to provide help.

Have a nice day ...
