This is the only list you will ever need ! Don't care that it's
"supposed to be" Ham-related Linux stuff (or the other way
around) discussed here. Just ask anything that comes to mind, heck,
nobody knows what all those other lists are for !
Oh, and Netiquette, who cares ? You can even flame the list owner at
no additional cost !

Do mind your manners. Use netiquette for good.
The mentioned listowner may at some point even hear of
that flaming, and turn nasty at the flamer -- like kicking
the subscription away. (Usually such kickouts are purely
due to technical faults along subscribers email delivery
path -- email to the subscriber gets rejected sometimes.)
Classifying a question as "stupid" does vary greatly by
peoples experience. Some great magic incantation may
be self-evident to some Elmers, but not so to everybody.
If you feel an urge to flame, postpone it for an hour,
and think then if it is worth the effort. Propably isn't.
Giving gentle guidance offline is always an option, which
certainly improves list S/N ratio.
