Ok, whatever.... I guess you'll have to take my word for for it that we really do get tons of calls like that. It's especially frustrating when they are wrong, and our system is *NOT* broke. I guess the general populace must a lot friendlier there or something. Around here, one often has to speak in that manner just to be acknowledged. Again, I have seen much more biting commentary than anything I have yet written. I'm sorry if I hurt your feelings. > >> Granted, I'm not paying you for support.

Noone here is > making a single cent on Debian. And again, I ask, why should that change anything. I'm sick of hearing you complain that you aren't getting paid. That still doesn't change how your attitude should be. > Anyway, what support? You obviously didn't want support, as was more than > evident by your not taking it when it was offered.

I guess the mistake I made was thinking that IRC is a vilid means of support. All the answers I got on IRC were not usable, and mostly along the line of go fix it yourself. Well, usually, I have no problem with that, but I wouldn't be asking for help if I could do that, now would I?
