Who appointed you moderator? I guess I'll have to go back to the
Red Hat website and reread the moderator list.
You're a snippy one aren't you? ^_^
I think you take my text to be mean and combative. It's not really.
Ok. It certainly seemed so. But then this entire thread is IMO

device drivers. Why not build upon that effort? Isn't this something
worthy of discussion?
