Well this happened to me the first time in fedora, i
was trying to highlight that i was having newbie
problems in fedora.  But its ok now and its up and
running.
If there is a limit to the maillist i don't know about
it.  I only post to the maillist with linux problems. 
If it seems i have a problem with every distro then
does that mean i am rubbish at linux.  Maybe so, hence
i seek help with stuff like this.

I will spend more time on my e-emils with good
english, i am sorry if it is not ok.  Why did you go
through the archives, what for, i am sorry if i have
offended you.  All my past problems in the archive are
all ok.  I am a newbie, when i attending the meeting
everyone knew more than me, i was the odd one out.
What does Troll mean, is this some linux think
involing e-mail.

I can asure i am not.  If Ubuntu was working why did i
try it fedora.

MY POSTION;
I am curious about the linux world.  I like trying out
new distros even though the one i use works 100%.  I
always check out distrowatch.com.  I like using new
distros trying out new linux stuff (mezzo and klik). 
I like taking plunges into stuff because i get into
mistakes and thats how i learn more.  I like looking
into the / file and learning about those weired files.
 When i try out a new distro i am a newbie because its
the first time i use them.  When i post problems on
the maillist eventually they are all solved.  I
remember i first had screen problems and grub and yes
i did post it.  Now i feel stupid someone looked at
the archives.  Because now doing screen and boot-up
realted stuff i very very easy.  I sort my screen out
via files, without GUIs and Grub well.  When i do new
distros i sort out booting myself.
Most of you will use distros for doing proper work and
use it to the nth degree.  Proberly most of you may
not do what i do always changing looking at new
distros.  For most of you its is not a hobby but a
serious thing.  The only time i come across linux
users is when i go to the meeting.
Hence if there are problems with my post i would like
the person who maintains this to let my know.  I would
not want to put stuff on the  post which distrupts
subjects or stuff which is too basic.  If wolves rules
do not fit me please let me know, i do not want to be
a pain. 

Cheers

Bobby
