Well, Lee, I have to add that introducing a mail with something like "fix it or I'm moving to slackware", that's probably supposed to be some form of threatening, is definitely.. how am I going to say this while staying polite... "bad practice". =========== Sorry Pascal, that's not what I said, don't change it to suit yours and Graham's arguments. I'll repost it so you'll be clear and others won't start jumping down my throat for something you made up to sound like it came from me. I quote me: "Trying to be patient, but Slackware is starting to look better each day! ;o)"
Your report is certainly interesting and will hopefully trigger a fix, but what Graham was referring to is your tone (and I second that).
Especially your follow-up emails are quite inflammatory without it bringing any added value, this one being a very nice example as well. ============= My tone is that of a frustrated & disappointed long time SUSE user, nothing more, nothing less. Don't interpret it or imply your thoughts into what I was trying to convey, because I'm pretty sure you can't read my mine or you would have known. You're welcome to bring your

Wow, how nice. Actually you really confirmed Graham's reply ;)
Please keep on reporting issues, contributing, etc... but please drop that troll dress, that's not helping anyone, and certainly not yourself.

With a smiley, no less! ------------------------------ [...] thoughts into the discussion, but don't make yours mine please. -------------------- that is the way he thinks things should be handled. I don't think any less of Novell/Suse or the guys doing the work, because I know they can't be happy with this whole situation either. They'll do all they can to correct those things needing fixing. Hopefully they'll be allowed to handle things in a timely & rewarding manner that will please them and us. If I didn't believe in them and their work still, I would already be gone instead of still searching out problems. thank you, Lee --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-help@opensuse.org
