Are you sure the .desktop files don't have autostart turned off. This 
can be configured by the distro or packager of course with patches (if 
that's how you're installing Tracker).

Check X-GNOME-Autostart-enabled=true in:

  data/*.desktop.in.in

or

  $sysconfdir/xdg/autostart/

At this point the miner-fs is the only one that should start 
automatically (and that includes the File System and Applications mining).

Hmm, can you attach files and the issues to a bug report please? I think 
there is an existing bug about OOo files, but it's more about finding 
the right word spacing IIRC. Anyway, better to have bugs instead of 
forgetting these issues ;)
