under the screen app of xterm you have :
"Ctrl Tab Esc ..."

Just tap on "Esc"
After that do : wq for save the file
(on my french keyboard it's blue arrow, k, w, q)

or tap on "Esc" and type :q! for exit without save

(if you make mistake when edit the file, it's may be better to exit and restart)

Do you have made the cp tracker.cfg tracker.cfg.ORIG before start vi ?

It's very important.

yes i have made the backup .
ty for the replys , u have been realy helpfull .
and the mini guide very easy to follow .

im thinking of removing the folder i want from watchlist and see what happends :P

how can i restore the orig file if something goes wrong ?
cp .cfg.orig .cfg ?

yes

cp tracker.cfg.orig tracker.cfg

remove the *.db file

reboot the phone

ok !!!!
i removed the .image folder from the watch list .
if u do that u cant see the images from the Images folder , but u can still access them through the file browser .
so i quess ill just rewrite the line and make a new folder and add it to notwatch list .
ty alot for ur help .

This thread is very helpful, but it'd be great if someone could write a GUI to control tracker!

1 more thing , what is the path to the memory card ?
searches for images there too , listing album covers etc, realy annoing

I don"t have memory card yet (I want to fix the tracker problem before buy it)

Just put your memory card, open xterm, reduce the font (use volume down button) and do "df -h".

You will see your memory card. The path will be in the last column.

there are some options bout turning off the tracker , but that whould suck .
there is also an option bout the tracker priorety 0->20 but its already set to lowest .

Its so much easier and faster to use "nano" instead of vi.
