Pardon me, but while Karl is sometimes annoying, the repeated piling on is really beginning to get to me. I like this list and I do use it. Where Karl is wrong, tell him what is wrong and why. Then let it go. Karl, quit baiting for trolls. Now, please try to be civil, try to give information that is helpful, and where Karl is wrong, edit the information and correct it. That won't take any longer than this continual bickering. In addition, this stuff will prevent others, especially new folks, from joining the list. They will know that some of their questions are old to us, and when they see someone continually taken to task, why would they risk saying anything. Think about it. For me, I'm a crusty old codger and generally state my mind, so it doesn't prevent me from speaking up, but most people are much more timid, especially when it comes to highly technical things like OS's and computers. We do want new people on Linux, don't we? Regards, Les H
