Likewise "I'm > running Linux Mint / TDE and I can't find support in their channel - > please help" I agree, people should not expect help on 3rd party applications, frankendebians, or other situations that run against the standard advice around here. I think you did a good job of explaining this to Steve. Once in a while, someone asks for help in such a situation, and someone else is in a position to give it. But that's the exception. So I have no problem with someone asking. I do take exception to some twatwaffle getting irate because no-one answered his badly framed and off-topic query. Besides, we're all volunteers here, something some people can't seem to get wedged between their ears. -- Does anybody read signatures any more? https://charlescurley.com https://charlescurley.com/blog/
