[Tracker] No search w

["Haim Roitgrund" <haim roitgrund gmail com>]

I seem to only get search if I keep the default "List of directory roots to index", namely the home directory.

Several times, I've tried to change it as follows:

# List of directory roots to index and watch seperated by semicolons
WatchDirectoryRoots=/;
# List of directory roots to not index and not watch seperated by semicolons
NoWatchDirectory=/bin;/vimlinuz;/proc;/bin;/sbin;*png;/dev;/lib;/tmp;/vmlinuz.old;

Each time, I get:

:~$ tracker-search mexico
tracker-search: internal tracker error: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.
:~$ 

Once I go back to the default .cfg file, however, searches work fine (except that they are, of course, limited to the home directory). I don't know that this is related, but I've noticed Google Desktop, too, had trouble once search was expanded to other directories.

Is there a problem with extending indexing to other directories? Am i missing something?
