you log in to your session (this option is selected by default). If you want to

dexing when your laptop is running on battery power.
Automatically start searching after the user has stopped typing:
Select this option if you want Beagle to start searching as soon as you stop
entering text in the Find field in the Desktop Search window. This option
has no effect on the Search field in the main menu.
Display the search window by pressing:
Choose the keystrokes that will display the Desktop Search window by
specifying any combination of Ctrl , Alt , and a function key. F12 is the default
keystroke.
You can also click Search > Preferences in the Desktop Search dialog box.
