Hi people, Please take a look at our project page in garage : garage.maemo.org/projects/canola this could be happening to you because the canola applet, or better the canola-conf is scanning in the background and there's a lot of content on your mmc or something. We have solved that, and we are close to release an update that solves not only that but other issues reported by the users. If it hangs in the startup, please wait.. maemo mapper users need to wait a little bit until the scanner finishes the indexing for the database. Solution for you problem: go to the web configure tool, click on media collection remove the folder /media/mmc1/ and add only the folder of your media in the mmc e.g: /media/mmc1/photos /media/mmc1/music We realize that users need to have more options in this field on the configure but it will take a little bit more of time and testing to assure everything is fine and we will give users more options to set exclude folders. About the cpu usage: With canola, the obvious thing was to be the more eye-candy ready as possible, and that takes a lot of cpu, but we did some mistakes in some screens, with the cpu higher then it should be. In the soon to be released update, the cpu usage was drammatically reduced and better : the app now fells a little speeded up =) Sorry for the incovenience, and we are in garage.maemo.org for any problems and also on #canola in irc.freenode.net for any canola-only related problems. you can talk to following guys _Handful_ me andrunko k-s chencarek Anything else, please fell free to drop me another email!
