Is anyone else finding it difficult to find information?

For example, I went to install apache today.  I had to search the mailing 
list archives to find a list of steps to follow in order to install it.  
That's great!

But then apache reports that I must have DES first.  Not a problem.  But 
I've just spend two hours trying to find instructions on how to install 
DES.  I've found nothing.  It's so frustrating!

I can't be the only one that finds this difficult to the extreme of 
frustration.  I can follow instructions.  If only the instructions are 
there to be found.

arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh!

I'm off for a bike ride.  This is too much.
