Hi Mathew I guess that's what they call a baptism of fire :-0 and we're not all like that honestly! Like I said before I can see both sides of the argument and it does frustrate me a tad. You'll see exactly what I mean when you get up to speed with the linux stuff. Getting the healthy balance appears to be getting harder and harder to achieve and you're quite right, I work in support in a windows environment for my living and yesterdays pearler was 'my printer won't print' in an uptight manner from the person doing the printing. I took a quick peek and the wrong paper size had been selected so the printer was waiting to be fed the correct sized paper. Everyone has issues at different levels is what I guess I'm trying to say, going off on a one frustrates everyone involved, showing someone properly gives them the ability to do it right next time and also help them to show someone else further down the line. It is supposed to be a linux community after all. So sorry for the initial rough ride you received. If you look back in the archives you'll see that there are various people trying to coordinate a 'pitfalls to look out for' for people doing a new installation and your experience would probably be a good yardstick as to what needs to be improved.
