This list is starting to tick me off a little!
The days of a bunch of old hackers that think they are superior are over and I 
must admit that if someone gave me an answer like that I would also get my 
back up.

This proves my point nicely!

And here my friend you are being made out as a complete ass! You say go read 
the docs and then you don't do it yourself?

So all that happened here was a user asked a question, got abused and still 
has the problem.
Sorry guys that is not how it works, I asked my first question earlier in the 
week and the first answer I got was a link to a spelling rule! For crying in

If this is the way people are going to behave on this list you may as well 
spare yourself the pain and change to fedora now, no one will want to come 
here to ask questions and rather go to the fedora/debian/slack lists that are 
friendly and want to help new users.

Is it that hard to be nice, friendly or helpfull? Or are you just lurking on 
the list waiting for people to ask questions so you can pounce and be a 
bastard?
You must have a lot of friends.........

Try it once, it may amaze you
