--- Comment #8 from piedro <piedro.kul...@googlemail.com> --- Still I don't understand: Why not start a service when it is needed? So if someone using gnome and digikam - why not start baloo the moment digikam is started... I still see no use nor necessity to auto-run it on login... - also there are way, way more use cases in which baloo is running in the background and nobody ever uses digikam (or something else needing the backround services) than there are use cases that benefit from a preloaded baloo... So I do not see what exactly prevents you from taking my advice here and only start KDE background services with a KDE session. If someone needs them using LXDE or Gnome just start them if they are needed... Micrsoft does the same with MS Office: they load Office services in the background just in case somebody wants to use it... it has been pointed out many times as a really bad idea causing problems and wasting ressources. Even MS added an option and made the behaviour opt-in instead of opt-out. Please do the same, thx, p. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
