[Digikam-users] Re: Help: digikam doesn't start anymore

[Daniel Bauer]

I use reiser fs. 

I don't have any raw files in digikam (use canons program to convert them in 
VirtualBox), only jpg, png, some xcf, some tiffs.

When digikam finally appeared the album tree was empty and I had to enter the 
album tree again and wait some minutes until it was searched. Strange...

Then I looked at some images (no changes) closed digikam, and it took again 
approx. 3 minutes to open (search for new images when starting applied). 
With search for new images desabled it takes about a second to open.
My complete path contains 37721 image files, 875 subfolders, 200 GB. I change 
images between folders quite often, delete folders, add new ones... 

I'll try to switch to MySQL...

have a nice day!

Daniel
