Did you consider it to be unfriendly to imply that the problems you have are caused by CentOS and not by an action of yourself ? To be honest, I personally wouldn't mind if you would go back using OpenSUSE because we do not need a community of whiners that lacks any social skills. But if you intend to stay and be part of the CentOS community, I hope you can change your attitude. -- -- dag wieers, dag at centos.org, http://dag.wieers.com/ -- [Any errors in spelling, tact or fact are transmission errors]
