And up to now, I hadn't even chosen to respond because I ignored the subject line; I don't personally do redhat so I tend to skip messages that aren't of interest to me, in the interest of time. Also, If more background is needed to formulate an answer, it is a natural to respond by asking more questions. -----Original Message----- From: Frank Carmickle [mailto:frankiec@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, October 04, 2001 6:12 AM To: speakup at braille.uwo.ca Subject: Re: Response And you think that complaining about the help is going to get you more help! When your ready to give us enough info to help you we'll be glad to help. It's hard to give someone directions when you ask them where there coming from and they tell you how they've had a bad day and that your not helping by asking there location. If your not going to tell me your location I will not be able to give you directions to my house. Hell you could be in East Asia or Alaska for all I know. How the hell do expect us to know where the fuck you are. So quit bitching. And then you close with best regards? How about you start by reading the documentation. The speakup readme for slackware is quite good. I will not rewrite it now just so that you can read it on the list. They can be found in the slackware-8.0 directory on the slackware ftp sight. ftp.slackware.com You may want to try using current software. redhat 7.0 is old and so is slackware 7.1 On Thu, 4 Oct 2001, Michael wrote: -- Frank Carmickle phone: 412 761-9568 email: frankiec at dryrose.com _______________________________________________ Speakup mailing list Speakup at braille.uwo.ca http://speech.braille.uwo.ca/mailman/listinfo/speakup
