Star A Visual Look at BeagleFS
Linked by Eugenia Loli-Queru on Sat 22nd Jul 2006 00:34 UTC
General Development Robert Love posted in his blog some interesting screenshots: Thanks to beaglefs, a FUSE-based filesystem written by him that creates a real filesystem subtree from the results obtained from a beagle query) he was able to get a "people" subdirectory, with subdirectories named as your contacts, icons, and inside every directory links to all the documents related with that contact.

What you need to do to use FUSE depends on your kernel version. FUSE is part of Linux 2.6.14 and all later kernels, so it's in SUSE 10.1 (Linux 2.6.16). I don't know what kernel version Ubuntu 6.06 has.

Once you have a recent kernel, you need to load the FUSE kernel module:

/sbin/modprobe fuse

You may also need to install the fuse package (that's the SUSE 10.1 name) to get the fusermount program (to unmount user-space filesystems) and libfuse.so shared library (to allow FUSE-using applications to load).

If you're going to compile a FUSE program, you'll also need (of course) fuse-devel (or equivalent) for the header files and compile-time link libraries.
