I would like to thank John that he stepped forward and started a project to help us cope with the load of support mails we receive. An auto reply bot is nice, but it will require a lot of tuning before it gets really useful. For example the message: "(WW) Open APM failed (/dev/apm_bios)..." appears in the log of any desktop if APM isn't enabled. However it is completely harmless in almost any case. Setting up a FAQ can be the step prior to setting up a bot. John, if you don't mind you could convert the entries in the bot into a FAQ which we can be easily be extended. When we have a well established FAQ you can start building a bot pointing people to the correct entry. A while ago somebody had set up a Wiki for XFree86. I'm not sure if it is still working, in fact I've nver tried it. This may be a good starting point to build the FAQ. I do agree with the call for better man pages ;-) Egbert. _______________________________________________ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
