It will be fixed in the next posting, if there is one. :snip: As for the rest of your post, I see you must have missed when I asked if perhaps something like this would be helpful because of all the repeat questions to this list, especially by newbies. I solicited opinions and it was determined that the users of this list would find it useful. >From the archives: http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/2004-June/msg01590.html :snip: > how about: don't post lengthy answers to unasked questions. if you've > got this much to say, get a web page, ok? Well, I'm hoping that the questions that have been answered by this weekly post are just that..unasked. That's it's purpose, to let people know where to find common things so they don't ask it here over and over and over. :snip: I am always open to suggestions, and yours has been noted. If other folks find this listing an annoyance and think that it's useful no longer, then of course, I will stop posting it. Speak up, folks! --Lisa
