i too had to ask that once on another mailing-list. apparently on some popular (bad sense) fora, there are teen types who get their jollies by starting flame-wars: eg "hey guys, i've been having so much trouble, i've gone back to M$". among grown-ups, the sensible response is simply to ignore them or if there's a chance they are genuinely naive, offer a helpful answer. hopefully, Gentoo lists are patronised by adults -- attitude, not age -- , who shd react to the inquiry above as i did, ie that it's a genuine problem someone has had, but not really something to ask Gentoo users to help with. -- ========================,,============================================ SUPPORT ___________//___, Philip Webb : [EMAIL PROTECTED] ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Centre for Urban & Community Studies TRANSIT `-O----------O---' University of Toronto -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
