    Strigi Desktop Search

    Hello,

    Because, for now, I don't like Strigi, I want remove it. Is it safe to do without breaking the system?

      In Adept, search for "strigi", and make sure you remove all of it. It's very obnoxious.

        Gutsy was installed (new install from LiveCD) this evening. Went without a hitch. Had sound when my KDE Desktop loaded. After removing all installed packages associated with the name strigi in Adept Manager, and then shuting down/restarting, I no longer have sound.

        Were some of the library packages associated with strigi actually necessary for working sound

        I'm not really concerned at this time - Gutsy is my second installed OS on my laptop; Feisty is my main OS - and I could always just redo the Gutsy install again. But I would like to know if anyone else has experienced loss of working sound after removing the strigi related packages.

          It was one of the first things i removed, and i've had no problems with sound.
          I just told Adept to remove it, i never looked for anything else named "Strigi", though....
