As unhelpful and immature as you are, I must admit that I too find it
slightly irritating that I must configure X properly before being able
to use my wheel mouse.

It's not really a big deal, as I know how to make it work, but I can
understand why a newbie wouldn't like this.

Actually I don't think he meant he finds it irritating that you have to
configure X. I think he finds it annoying that the guy pesters us with a
question that has been asked time and time and time again and has a
section devoted to it in the FAQ for this newsgroup and for X itself.
RTFM and STFW already. Sheesh!

Wouldn't like it doesn't matter. If he's worth a damn he can quickly
and easily find the answer to that question. If he doesn't want to make
the effort to learn the basics then he is better off sticking to
windows.

My God I've agreed with RM! I must make penance!

Easy, boy, easy. You've done no such thing. Slow down, take slow,
deep breaths. OK. He didn't say "RTFM," He said "Install windows."
There's a significant difference there, you know!

He wasn't annoyed because somebody didn't RTFM, he's annoyed because
anybody's using Linux.

And anyway, what are we doing feeding the troll? Other than to reiterate
RTFM. Heck, RTFNG, fer Crissakes! That same question has been asked at
least a half-dozen times in the past week and answered about a hundred!

50 years old

Use Linux 4 years

Live Asia

Sometimes people ring up with big problem
for them but simple problem for someone with
better education.

X configuration is a big ? for some but
patience is better than assuming that
because a topic has been on the site many
times then everyony has read it.

Enjoy Slack and avoid eliteism.

That's why newbie distributions will do it for you. Slackware is made for
people who configure things themselves.

True, but that does not excuse them for not looking for answers on
their own. If that question has been asked and archived in this very
place over and over again one should first look for the answer in those
archives, and then ask if they don't completely understand.
