Change the line<br /><br />folders[$e]=$HOME/<br /><br />to the places you want indexed. You may have to completely turn off indexing, remove $HOME/.local/share/baloo/index-lock, remove $HOME/.local/share/baloo/index , and restart.<br /><br />But it's great when it works, you can find files anywhere by content in Dolphin.skierpagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04480517078252023572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1085636072036546630.post-63714692669663360102015-09-09T07:46:14.381-07:002015-09-09T07:46:14.381-07:00I just crossed paths with baloo when I noticed som...I just crossed paths with baloo when I noticed some hickups in the system, even though I have plenty of room (16 GB, 1.8 TB HDD space of which more than 1 TB is free). So I checked which apps are consuming resources and found baloo. Ok, it's not too bad. But instead of the option to exclude folders where to search, I would rather have the option to decide in which to search/index the files. Because I sure would like to make use of it, but it definitely doesn't need to index all the system and configuration files. I would like it to search my documents and some other folders, that's it.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03914876035560201192noreply@blogger.com
