Sure... its not the right place
Not the right place? NOT THE RIGHT PLACE? It can never work, bugger
"not the right place".
but please not be such personal. That will help noone.
Crap. People without knowledge of the basic OS on which they're
working shouldn't be allowed near a computer - witness the thousands
of messages our main site is turning away from cracked bot machines
per week. There are licenses for competence in all sorts of things
that can harm other people, why not one for computers?
OP's machine came with comprehensive documentation and he can not be
bothered to read *any* of it. Well, he better had.
True, reading documentation should be the first step before do anything
else. But acting such "aggressiv" is totally unneccessary.
BTW, maybe this is helpful:

Who's said that OP is using Linux? If he is, then a link to FHS might
be better:
http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html
Look at the second post i made.. I allready noticed ;-)
But if he's using BSD or any other Unix variant, then both of the
above links will be useless.
True..
The trouble is, that people with Windows mentalities are taking to
other systems without the motivation either to find out about them or
even consult wikis (the simplest form of acquisition of any knowledge)
or use search engines. They should be required to take a test before
being let loose on the Internet.
Everybody who's given OP useless advice up to now should be required
to take that test.
