How to disable tracker, but be able to recover from it


Tracker's causing my system to have a very slow load upon login. At least I think so as I found it to be causing a lot of disk sleep which then caused other things to freeze up. I only use KDE, so I don't need it, but if I uninstall it I will need to uninstall Gnome stuff, including dropbox.

But I don't want to nuke some init files that will cause me issues if I ever decide to use Gnome. I've looked online, but apparently this is very poorly documented because there's all kinds of crazy advice that differs from version to version.
