Hello Anne
I did the following:
1. Made sure that "Enable Strigi Desktop File Indexer" was NOT checked.
2. Logged out and then logged back in.
3. After a few minutes, this error came up again:
http://www.afolkey2.net/~steve/kde-nepomuk-screenshot-001.jpg

Being much less knowledgeable than you about this, I tried running 
"strigidaemon" as a regular user:
[steve at localhost ~]$ strigidaemon 
could not create writer: Lock obtain timed out
^Cstop
DBusHandler::stop
stop
DBusHandler::stop
stopping
could not create writer: Lock obtain timed out

The significance of this is that when I ran "strigidaemon" as root, it 
appeared to run without error.  So, I proceeded to log out of my regular 
user account, and log into KDE 4.4.0 as root (yeah, I know...)  I opened up 
a terminal and started "strigidaemon"  I then enabled "Enable Strigi 
Desktop File Indexer"  A few second later, I got a message about the 
indexer being idle.  So, I copied about 1.3 GB of Johnny Cash MP3's to 
/root.  They were happily indexed right before my eyes :)

So, in KDE 4.4.0, Strigi Desktop File indexing works as root and not as a 
regular user.  (For me, anyway...)
You know, this reminds me of a completely unrelated issue I have where, for 
example, I can't run a Python/GTK based app unless I am logged in as 
root...

Anyway, eagerly awaiting wisdom on how to make this work as a regular user.

Thank You,
Steven P. Ulrick
