You're welcome to search our archives. But don't post here unless you
run Debian, want to know how your system works, and are willing to help
others as well as yourself. I'm not trying to be unkind. I have
nothing against you personally. But it is not fair for you to run
another OS and then come over here asking for free help. This is not a
forum for users of all 250+ Debian-derived distributions. This is a
*Debian* forum. Period.
Uh, that hurts :-(
I join another distribution mailing lists and is not so uncommon to see
questions coming from another OS (linux based).
We are all in the same boat.
I acknowledge every list has it own rules but true is that some questions
are so wide that are also valid for any kind of linux flavour and every
list user will get benefit from the responses.
And Ubuntu and Debian are almost "cousins". Well, I think you already
know my personal point of view about this.
