Hi,
I've been playing a little with beagle, and it seems potentially great.
However, I've noticed that if I search for a certain string, which I know is
in some files, it does not find them. It DOES find the same string in older
files (same type). It seems like it is not finding or noticing any files I
have created since I first started playing with beagle, since I have yet to
see them appear in any search I try.
I've tried looking into what beagle is doing with the various beagle-XXX
commands, not not really understood what I'm seeing.
Can anyone suggest what to do / look for to see if beagle is mis-behaving ?

You need to enable "Extended Attributes" for the part of the file system
beagle should be monitoring. Otherwise, the update process is much
slower. See
http://www.antezeta.com/beagle-fedora.html#attributes
for details.
Another open FC5 issue is MS .doc indexing. .doc parsing and indexing
requires a version of wv. A wv is in extras; I am in the processing of
verifying that this version of wv is compatible with FC5's beagle. So
far, beagle has started to reindex "Document" types (see the type filter
in the search gui). Previously indexed "Document" types do not show up
in beagle's search. A newly modifed .odt does, so I'm optimistic.
