Image viewer is coded to only start nepomuk searchs with three or more characters in the input field. Nepomuk search is expensive and slow, it is not worth doing it for a small two character fragment. For the the first problem I have noticed it too. I have no clue as to why it happens. Problems in nepomuk source code are more complicated to debug and this one seems to be one of them. In the first case, the problem is that the search does not start with less then three characters, but instead of still showing all images, none are shown when one or two characters are entered. This is definitely a usability problem. So I see two possible solutions here: 1. Show all images until the user enters at least three characters 2. Don't show images if one or two characters are entered, but instead write "Enter at least three characters to start searching" into the results area. +1 for solution number #2. It indicates that the system is already doing something. And shows that currently no results is not an error, but intended. Git commit 6947cfa0b8b6a12788741e10bc4116400d09079d by Lamarque V. Souza.

Revert "remove regexp as nepomuk anyway does a substring match using contains()" Nepomuk does not do substring match with contains. Active image-browser now shows results for any subtring (even for one character). This reverts commit b789c94de9c3d88e88809099b27126e30d1dde5c.
