This is why people go insane and do terrorist attacks, because more and more people don't really give a shit what they're selling and poor people don't have a choice.. I know it's bad to compare this to OpenBSD, because it's for free, but we also don't have a good enough alternative yet (I'm semi-serious here, if it wasn't obvious) > > > > I didn't change the source code related to Xenocara, I was just curious > > > > if > > > > Xenocara compiles with different Makefile or something.. it'd be nice > > > > if at > > > > least someone told me if it affects the mouse profile/driver somehow. > > > > > > Incorrect.

Yeah, that's what I expected too, but it doesn't seem to be compiling-related perhaps...

Excuse? You mean I can't excuse my perfection? I write better shit than OpenBSD does, but not really on same topic, but lets say that when I put an effort (like OpenBSD hints to do or else it's a bug), I perfectly explain stuff about what I'm talking or the contex as if my reader is a loli... almost no one has time to decipher text and gamble wether or not they are SKILLED ENOUGH TO RTFM provided. Please stop joking and get serious. > And you cannot comment on perfectionism with bad grammar. It is "looks like". I know how to write it, I just missed it, I don't have infinite free time and/or patience to reread my replies a bunch of times until absolute perfection, I think I got my points across well and had explained as if.. you know the rest. > Matthew > > Fig leaf: If you would like to know why you are not getting the > support you wish and how to present your questions in such a way > that they might actually be dealt with amicably, that is way off > topic and you can contact me off-list. Yes, I'd like to know, but I have a suspicion which is related to ego.
