Where is help on F8? I think it is a bug." you did *not* just ask other peoples' opinion, you explicitly ventured the opinion that the behaviour you were seeing was a "bug," which is *exactly* the behaviour of yours i was condemning in my earlier post, and it's why your posts are so aggravating. normal people might see something curious in fedora, and ask about it. *you*, on the other hand, see something curious and immediately conclude that it's broken. you then post a message to that effect, after which other mailing list members patiently have to correct you. do you see the difference, karl? *other* posters learn stuff by asking questions, and getting responses. *you* learn stuff by posting bogus accusations about fedora and being constantly corrected. and that act is starting to wear really, really thin. rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
