With all the respect, you can't expect others to sit all day and bother to
answer other's people questions. you are not the only busy guy. I am glad to
help, when there really are problems, but try doing some stuff by yourself!

Right, but you can work some alone. You know how much I worked configuring
my XWindows before addressing Here and comp.os.linux.x? a LOT. cause if you
just come and try to ask things which are easy to do, adn are explained
everywhere, you'll get flamed. EVERYWHERE. not only in linux-il. Ever tried
posting such a question into some comp.os.linux group?
People are not reading mailing lists/newsgrroup to help people who can't
read a nice HOWTO. They read those things for discussions, are are usually
glad to help people who encountered REAL problems.
Take this into consideration.
