Beagle is quite a resource hog and will keep your system busy whenever it finds it to be "idle", that is the reason why I decided to ditch it (I wasn't using the search functionality that much anyways). You could make sure that "beagled" is not started upon login, that way it will not do autoscanning of your files and only start when you use it. regards Jürgen -- ICQ #81510866 - http://the-gay-bar.com - MSN tante@emptiness.de Occam's Razor: -"Entia non sunt multiplicanda praeter necessitatem."-
