alien's KDE 4.6RC1 always run /usr/bin/strigidaemon after login...

grissiom · 12-25-2010, 01:28 AM

I've disabled the strigi search and "semantic search" in KDE settings but no help. strigidaemon starts every time after I logged in and makes the system slow.(since it scanning the disk, there will a lot of disk IO)

Is there a way to get rid of this?

Did you disabled the deamon in the settings?

Code:

system settings => sevicemanager

You could remove
Strigi-daemon, strigi-applet, strigi-client, strigi-plugins and strigi-utils.

Kind regards

Using Alien's latest packages, I went ahead and enabled nepomuck, strigi, and whatever else. The fans have been on high since about 8hrs and 20min ago. The system is barely usable since I got up, but the more I use it, the better it runs. Just makes the fans go harder. If this thing can't finish its index soon, I'm gonna shut it all down again.

Anybody know how long this takes on a first run? A week - 10 days?

No, there is only "Nepomuk Search Module" I found might be relative. But disable it doesn't help at all... I disabled strigi in every corner I can find and set the scan module to none. But it doesn't help too...

It eat up 50% CPU and ~200M RAM in about 10min. I have to shut it down by hand... ;(

It depends on the setting of scan directories.

Screw it - I just killed all the indexing stuff. Now KDE runs as Bob intended.

Sure, I have. I even have comments in that post

But there is no hint about how to stop strigi start every time after I log in...

Yup, I want to screw it as well but I don't know how to...

You can disable nepomuk in System Settings under Desktop search. That usually does all I need. Under System Administaration > Startup and Shutdown, there is some more things in there if you don't need them.

@mlangdn

Yes, I did that. But it doesn't help... Do I need to cleanup the .kde folder _again_ ?... ;(

mlangdn · 12-26-2010, 01:44 AM

If you start with a new .kde folder, everything will be enabled again. You will have to go back and disable it all over again. I really have no clue why you aren't getting relief from just disabling nepomuk. I would run:

Code:

# top

and see what the culprit is.

I tried to

Code:

mv /usr/bin/strigidaemon /usr/bin/strigidaemon.old

an things got quieter (before I got segfaults in the logs).

then I removepkg'd akonadi and kdepim stuff don't work anymore, but things got even quieter.

grissiom · 12-27-2010, 07:37 PM

Good idea

I wanted to

Code:

ln -s /usr/bin/true /usr/bin/strigidaemon

but remove akonadi and kdepim might be better ;P
