HOWTO stop the tracker from rebuilding db after the N900 reboot
 
Hi, Every One.
I have a problem about the tracker.
When I reboot the N900, the tracker-index always rebuild the db, even I do not change any image or video or audio.
And the tracker will always use 100% CPU, and I would not use the Phone for about 10 or 20 minutes.
Is there any solution to stop the tracker rebuild the db after boot the phone?
I don't want to stop it all the time, I just want the tracker to work after any image/video/audio changed, and I don't want it to slow my N900 boot time.

Thanks.

You can kill tracker with this command:
Code:
$ tracker-processes -r

If I kill the tracker after N900 boot, would the tracker start automatically again? If it would start again, will it use 100% CPU again?
Thanks.

I tried this command. And it do not do what I want to do.
This command stop the tracker and remove the tracker db and rebuild them.
I just do not want it take too mach CPU in the N900 booting time.
It would take 10~20 minutes after N900 boot, and cause 100% CPU usage, and I could not use the phone, because the CPU is 100% used.

try -k
Code:
tracker-processes --help
Usage:
  tracker-processes [OPTION...]  - Manage Tracker processes and data

Help Options:
  -?, --help          Show help options

Application Options:
  -k, --kill          Use SIGKILL to stop all tracker processes found - guarantees death :)
  -t, --terminate      Use SIGTERM to stop all tracker processes found
  -r, --hard-reset    This will kill all Tracker processes and remove all databases

The tracker generally causes me no problems.
Have you changed any tracker settings?

Uninstall tracker :)

Please note that it has a lot of dependencies including the stock media player and picture viewer. You will need to find alternatives.

Your problem looks strange. Tracker should only rebuild databases when it notices a change in watched folders. Perhaps it is misconfigured? Check out this thread for ideas and/or install tracker-cfg from extras.
