Yes thank you,

The amount of mailing list is very excessive and sometimes difficult to fathom.

The reason why I asked the question in this forum was that the KDE/Lunix forum was inappropriate for this question.

Personally I see no value in posting the same question to multiple lists at the same time and I trust the system is wise enough to knock back multiple addressed emails.
I only think 2 lists are appropriate for things I don't know right now. That is like throwing mud at the wall and seeing what sticks - That is neither helpful nor constructive.

This one for strictly Linux O/S type question such as this one was and the KDE/Linux list for questions relating to the use of
a KDE application.

I think I have worked out which to use and when now. Unfortunately every Distro has a wide number of applications and finding the correct audience or list for your question
is a mine field.

Unfortunately is hard being a new kid on the block. Stepping out of one environment where you were completely competent and comfortable in and diving into a different O/S
and having you extensive experience count for nothing is difficult - perhaps that is why many don't want to change their O/S where they change from
the master into the student and sometimes we forget.

Kind regards

Scott

OK, but it was either asked on this list before or on the factory list.
Cross-posting is frowned upon and I just thought I would pass that info
on to you. I hope the answers I gave helped.
