I'm a widdle too drunk right now (just got elected president of the CS student fraternity at U of Oslo) to parse that correctly :) Anyway, I don't want people to GO AWAY from FreeBSD. Anybody can make a mistake (or several mistakes). It's OK as long as you show a willingness to LEARN and not do the same mistake twice or three times in a row. After two or three repeat performanced it stops being a mistake and becomes IDIOCY. Perhps I shouldn't have used the term "luser" in my previous posting, it shows a negative attitude towards newbies. -- Noone else has a .sig like this one.
