I am using the gentoo-sources Kernel a Kernel with inotify support and /dev/inotify permissions set to 0644. Beagle complains that inotify isn't enabled. here is some useful output: alama@valiant ~ $ beagled --replace --fg --debug Debug: Starting Beagle Daemon (version 0.1.2) Debug: Command Line: /usr/lib64/beagle/BeagleDaemon.exe --replace --fg --debug Debug: Starting main loop Debug: Starting messaging server Debug: Starting QueryDriver Debug: Found index helper at /usr/lib64/beagle/beagled-index-helper Debug: KMail folders not found.

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 116654 ***
Although this was marked as a duplicate, it is not "fixed" in newer versions. The problem is that your kernel is way to old. Inotify no longer has a device node, it is system-call based, and beagle only works with the syscall interface. Also in future please use the attachment feature for large pastes.
