You are responsible for your own success. Before asking for help, do something to find a solution yourself. Oh, no, too complicated to look on packages.debian.org so I'll ask on the mailing list what's the latest version of package xyz and if it's available in backports. Oh, no, too complicated to do a man dd to know what are the command line options. I'll just ask on the mailing list... If you don't bother making little effort then people won't make them either. So when you ask question, it will just be "Oh this guy always ask dumb question, now he asked a good question but if he ask so simple question most of the time, this mean I'll have to explain everything to him. If a he doesn't know what this word mean then I'll need to explain it too, because he won't even take the time to check what it means. He's just gonna ask me back what's a "canarie" or what's the "stack" when we are talking about buffer overflow. Do I really want to get into all this ? No... So I won't answer and you loose your chance to get real help when it's for something that you won't find easily the answer... > Cheers > - t > -- Polyna-Maude R.-Summerside -Be smart, Be wise, Support opensource development
