Join 10 random technical mailing lists and ask the question "Should I search for answers to my issue before asking here, or just immediately ask here first, every time I have a problem?" I'm truly surprised you'd argue this point as it's universally understood/accepted support mailing list etiquette. But after reading the rest of this, which I snipped to reduce resources, it seems clear you will simply argue every point I make, whether you're right or wrong, because you are apparently so irritated at me that you equate agreeing with anything I say to slitting your own wrists or walking through fire. If you want to call me a jerk then do so. But don't argue the wrong side of an issue simply to show your disdain by being a contrarian. That does disservice to your reputation. Burying this thread is way overdue. If you truly feel this dead horse hasn't been beaten enough, please email me off list out of courtesy to all others. -- Stan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
