The style of your asking had the right attitude (i.e. want to learn) and you got the positive feedback and suggestions. > I received some positive feedbacks on this thread from friends, who > were telling like "ILUGC should be more new users friendly". This is not just ILUG-Chennai specific. If you ask the questions with a positive attitude you get answers. On the flip side, people who ask for "step by step" on basic things (for which there are umpteen articles/tutorials) and expect hand holding without any effort on their part - that is bad attitude IMO. Linux mailing lists is not the place for them IMO. -- Arun Khan _______________________________________________ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
