Beagle stopped working after update

[rikona]

Now running 10.04.2. Did a recent update, and that seems to have
caused a couple of problems.

(1) Beagle stopped working after the update. The Beagle GUI works, but
produces no hits for a word that should return at least several hits.
Same for beagle-query CLI - no hits, and no errors. Running all the
Beagle tools produces reasonable results. Looking in .beagle shows a
reasonable index - right size, date, etc. - has about 12,000 docs.
Everything seems to be "working" - BUT it produces no hits.

Anybody else have this problem? [Especially after a recent update.]

How can I tell what Beagle dependencies might have been updated in the
last update? This might give a clue of the cause, and perhaps a fix?

Note - update also included changing the kernel to use 4 Gigs of
memory recently installed. Now sees all 4 Gigs.
  
[[and (problem 2) - sometimes needs a reboot to get the network
working - also happened after the update. This was mentioned in a
previous email, and is not part of this thread.]]

Good searching is very important to me - any help much appreciated...
