Thanks for the recommendation, Alias. I installed Automatix2 in the Ubuntu 7.10

VM I'm running in VirtualBox. It warns US residents not to violate the DMC law.

Since so far I've selected none of the offerings, I haven't done that yet.

Linux users ?

Yes, they are quite known for their high held principles.

That's why every Ubuntu support page has to come with a WARNING about users

Yes, they are quite known for their high held principles.

That's why every Ubuntu support page has to come with a WARNING about users

Thanks. I hadn't seen anything like that in the ubuntu/kubuntu areas I

have visited, as I generally am looking for some specific info and go

directly to it via a search. Unfortunately, such bad behavior isn't

confined to one os fan base or another, and it is sad for the lack of

civility exhibited in this case and others, regardless of what os one

might favor.

Because some people, one of whom could possibly be YOU, have signed up

about Linux users any more than Frank's bizarre behavior proves anything

about Vista users. You just have sour grapes because you couldn't set up

Ubuntu to your liking.
