And just make sure you copy it right, e.g which pointer hold address to user space and which one toward kernel space NB: "no one can stop us from asking..." Bond, did you remember when I said "you remind me to my younger days"? I was as rude as you're...maybe more, hell lot more. And what did I get....certainly not respect...even a bit. When a senior member like Greg Freemyer respond like that, it must be something that bothered him. To the best I know, Greg is one of the best and helpful person here. His experience is certainly way way above the average ( see his posts when dealing with storage and filesystem). So, instead of replying like that...which just asking for more trouble...why not take a step or two back and think "what did I do wrong?". Then open dialog. I am sure Greg is not asking for bloated respect, not at all. He just wanted you to do more on your own based on everybody cues here. PS: You feel clueless? you're not the first...and certainly won't be the last. face it, this is real world..not wonderland...nor heaven. Sometimes you need to work on your own really really hard to teach yourself. But the reward? fantastic... But should that make you rude to newbie after you? nope. You know something, you tell them...you don't know, then say sorry or just pass. If they cry like baby, let them... after a moment..they will grow up. I can guarantee that..
