Hello solitone,

What package is needed in order to use the search functionality in
Dolphin? At the moment I get an 	"invalid protocol" error.

Nothing:

Run System Settings, then go to Workspace -> Search -> File Search and
turn *off* Enable File Search.  That is, untick/uncheck it.  Now apply,
and then the Find file function will work in Dolphin.

Hi Guys,

Same error here on Debian Jessie/KDE 4.14.2/Dolphin 4.14.1. When I run System Settings I do not see an option "Search option"

According to the System Setting Manual there should be a "Desktop Search" module under System Settings > Workspace Appearance and Behavior - but it is not there. I assume this is what is meant by "File Search" above. Am I correct?

Any hints/instructions about how to get Dolphin's Find to work (given the above)?

Please note I turned file indexing off when I first installed Jessie.

Many thanks,
Dave.
