I think > one should remember gentoo can be an intimidating system Glad to see you back! =8^) I had been hoping you hadn't been driven away due to some of the replies I saw to you... then didn't see you around any more, so I'm glad to see you posting again. =8^) Me? My most potentially rude replies are generally to the folks who post in HTML, which is IMO a security issue when it appears in mail or news, and to a lessor extent those who continually top post. Still, I tend to answer the question along with my request to quit the netiquette violations, and only kill file those who continue them, repeatedly and consistently. I figure it's my reply, if they don't like me reminding them of netiquette along with my answer to their question, they can just killfile me, as I'll likely killfile them if they continue the netiquette violations. -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
