I disagree with his most important point: It's no good to post as much information as possible.

Now, please go back and read Alans first post in the thread.

Well, no, not as possible, but rather "as required". And that's been done. > Help people to help you, and make it easy > for them to do so. Yes. That's been done. Once more: The problem was, because rhythmbox of Gnome 2.20 is missing an (indirect) dependency on gst-plugins-alsa. That's fixed in 2.22. > I, too, know what it's like to receive a reply to one of my questions > which I find to be unhelpful and aggravating. However, "two wrongs > don't make a right" and no-one benefits from an angry response. Oh, so it's now my fault for responding to a flamebait? Nice. It's not the aggressor who's doing something wrong? Michael -- [email protected] mailing list
