Does a magnification glass appear at the top right?

Let it index files. After it finishes, if you go to Accessories->Tracker
Search Tool, ==> you have to type something you want to search and press
Enter.

Did you do these?


Apart from this, however, I have the feeling that your system got broken
with the upgrade process.

I suggest you back up your documents and other files, and perform a
clean install.

If you do not need to stick to 10.04 until 2013, I strongly suggest you
install 10.10 which is the best version ever released according to my
opinion, and which will have updates until April 2012.

Ubuntu 10.10 is really very stable and very great.


Whichever version you clean install, I suggest you try GNOME Meta
Tracker first, before Beagle.
