Useless and meaningless rant about my hate for Linux Mint...

I know you hate upgrades, but it sounds like you need to get to the 
latest version of KDE.  They killed off nepomuk in the latest version. 
They still have the semantik desktop stuff, but they replaced nepomuk 
with baloo, and it's much much much nicer on the system.

That being said, when you first install the latest version on your 
system, baloo will index you drive rather aggressively and cause some 
slowness while it is doing it.  Just leave your machine on overnight and 
allow it to finish.  Once it's done you won't notice it at all.. not 
even a little bit.  It's a really nice new system that does away with 
the database that was really slowing things down with nepomuk as well as 
using a completely different method to index files.

Once it's done indexing you can do some really cook file searches as 
well as creating virtual folders that thanks to the new system pop up 
almost instantly.
