Description Mark Szentes-Wanner 2005-07-10 11:07:59 UTC
Version:           3.3.2 (using KDE 3.3.2,  (3.1))
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.6 (Debian 1:3.3.6-5)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.11-1-686

If the user searches for files, this invokes a find-like searching through the the file system. It would speed up the initial displaying of search result if this function would also first check results from the locate database.

I am not quite sure if the search for files function also uses the KMRML index database.

Didn't you notice the "[ ] Use files index" option?

KMRML? That's for finding similar graphics!?

I receive a pop-up saying "locate:" and nothing else. Nothing shown in the found box. (The command line locate says the db is older than 8 days but displays the appropriate files.)

Do you need more info on this one?
