You know that was kind of rude.  All he is asking for is some help.... Whether
it's a pointer or just something that you might know about the codec AC97.  You
ask him to do some of his own research... HE IS.  for a long time, mailing lists
were a place to get help and pointers.  He came to this mailing list to do
research, even if it is just "go to this site".  mailing lists usd to be a bunch
of people willing to help each other.  Now it's all "RTFM" or "do it yourself"
or some other rude comment.  People now seem that if it is written somewhere,
everyone should be able to find it and understand it.  If someone is new to a
topic and the manual it too complex or indepth, they are screwed.  No one will
help them, they will simply state "RTFM".  and considering that this is the
"linux-newbie" perhaps he has done some other research but everything he finds
is too far out there for him.

What I'm saying is, don't be rude or short with someone who is asking for help.
if you are going to be, just delete the email and go on with your life.
Apparently your time is too precious to waste helping someone, so don't waste
more of your precious time responding.

Sincerely,
Joe Pfaltzgraff
