Hello Everyone,
I have had recent, VERY temporary success with Nepomuk/Strigi.  I have seen 
up to several hours of the re-scanning of my files.  I have even seen 
actual metadata on those files in Dolphin.  But, all that has stopped now, 
and Nepomuk/Strigi are no longer functional on my system.  I have no idea 
what made everything work temporarily, but I do know that Nepomuk/Strigi is 
broken again on my system.

Like I said in my previous message, I am interested in making this work.  
So if anyone could please be of assistance to me on this, I would greatly 
appreciate it.
