Thanks

It seems that the behaviour of beagle-info that you described before is
also reproducing here.. though I don't know beagle very much. In fact, I
hardly-ever use it, unlike the Search function embebed in Nautilus.
Actually, I don't know whether this one has any interconection with the
first (Beagle), or maybe each one is totally independent from each
other. 
 
Nevertheless, I frequently resort to the Nautilus Search, and specially
during/after a system update-install, because of the numerous amount of
short-text-notes that are being continuously accumulated from release to
release; As everybody can suppose, they are specially helpful when
moments like this arrive. 

I don't know if the next have anything to do with all this, but I did a
fresh install of FC6 over 3 partitions where previously lived FC5, /boot
and / were formatted again BUT with /home I decided (for the first time
as opposed to older FC/RedHat installs) to asign the newer /home there
without formatting. Everything went O.K. 
(BTW, it's absolutely recommendable, you save loooots of efforts & time)
It seems like that the Nautilus Search function hasn't indexed the files
placed into that partition...

Please Steve, is your Nautilus Search working right? Did you preserve
your older /home in order to build your fc6?

I don't know if this is simply odd (configuring or something I can being
missing..) or is just, purely Murphy.. that appears (as usual) choosing
the "best moment" :-))

Thanks again,
Daniel
