I hardly think that it was necessary to snap in that manner; which is blatantly offensive. Marius didn't say anything insulting in the slightest. However, people's perceptions are what turn issues into topics of debate or offense.
It does help to at least make the attempt to solve the problem your self. Newbies (such as myself) that take the time to at least try a fix can then have a more complete dialog while attempting to convey to a guru/old hat what problem they are having, what error they are getting. This allows people that -can- help -to- help, without asking 400 questions about "are you aware of what hardware you're using, if so, you didn't see the first 47 entries that are spit out of a google search on 'Linux <insert hardware here> <insert error message>'?"
I myself have asked questions without fully researching, and felt 10 IQ points dumber for not having searched google first. As an aside I think part of the problem with not finding help in google is the inability of most people on the planet to effectively search it. Of course reading helps with that too. *shrugs* Anyhow, my yen on the matter. ^_^
Sincerely,
Alex White
