[Digikam-users] Big problems with medium to large sized collections under Microsoft Windows

[Wolfgang Strobel]

Hello Digicam-users,

is Laurent and myself the only users, which have problems with digikam
under windows xp or windows 7?
can somebody tell us a real way to use digicam with large size
collections without to change unix?
Is the problem directly in digicam or only in the interaction from
digicam and the kde-plugins?
Is it possibel to start digicam in "debugmodus" under windows to find
the exact point of the error?

in hope of a helpful answer
