So Jens, I'm sorry if you felt I was accusing you, but I was asking how you
knew, not accusing you of being wrong. From the amount of knowledge I have,
which yes, is limited, I have no idea how you were able to verify what you
did.
Also, the text that you are telling me is incorrect, was text I copied
into my xorg without suffering any issue. So I'm, again, not sure where
exactly your getting your information from. If for some reason the method by
which I copied the text from somehow corrected my own error, I would really
appreciate if you would point that out to me. However, I don't think that
the tone of your reply, that is, if I'm interpreting it correctly, is really
appropriate.
