Adi, you dunderhead. You are old enough and experienced enough to know
that your sodding and idiotic waste of bandwidth by quoting my message
whole to add the above answer was wasteful, immoral and punishable by
eternal singing of Hava Nagila in the company with Hanale Sharon.

My dearest not soon to be extinct dodo,
You have sent one question to the list, asking WHERE to find coj. This
question would have been answered to your full satisfaction had you
bothered to conduct the simplest web search. Nevertheless, you chose to
bother the list and the list answered.
Now you ask another question. Namely (from the subject line) - "whats
next?" (sic).
I can tell you what next. In many many words. However, I've just had a
bottle of coke and am feeling benign.
Therefore, take the file. Unzip it. Print it on punched tape. Insert
tape up anus. Sit back and enjoy the warm feeling that you have mastered
a computer subject.

I understand that you're one of those small penis owners who scribbles
his name on toilet walls and urinals. Indeed, I know you for such and
therefore, welcome and hello.
However, as this list is not a urinal, please confine your member to the
privacy of your trousers and wave it not about, lest it be snipped.

I find and have found in the past (and, worse, fear that shall
find in the future, too) that jumping on someone and hollering with a
Marine sergeant's voice produces the absolutely best results in a
significant majority of cases. Not all, granted a-priori, but in a great
majority.
I readily agree with you that it is not the most neighbourly of tactics, but
it produces results without harming anything more than the victims'
composure and my own name. The latter is inconsequential, the prior is
insignificant.

Well, first of all, undress the disk. If you're into BDSM, tie it to the

Mr Merkin (check meaning in dictionary),
You are a pubic (check in dictionary) figure. As such, one would expect
you to be able to delve, flea-like in your industry (check in dictionary)
into whatever problem assailing your sensibilities.
However, you insist on snivelling and asking for help.
Your sobriquet (check meaning in dictionary) fits you.

You did not send "an email about an hacked site". You signed
your name under a list of other, no less underdistinguised, names,
on the lavatory wall, all comparing the length of their virtual
membra virile.
Then, proud of your scribbling ability, you climbed on a stump
and crowed.
You are a funny man who likes to measure your willy in public.
In a normal, non-Israeli, society, that would consign you to an
institution.

Now, people - both my admirers and those wishing to hit me over the head

Linux is Ir. Ir, of course, is a form of hypereviscerated Reiyk.
Of course, having been at least incepted in Suomi, the influence
of Pohjola is obvious to any but the most subnegated of birdwatchers.
Suomi being spelled (and, of course, pronounced) with a bilabial
nasal, care must be taken to not disrespect and otherwise impugn or
misrepresent the cerebral alveodental nasal which is inherent in
the prolixifications of Linux which are of less pecuniary
propensity than others.

Choo darling, of COURSE we do. My distro (Bogus Linux v0.93r1) is
MILES better than your distro, whatever it may be, especially since I say

I hereby grant you your wish. Your wish, as communicated to me by
the higher authorities in IOL, is to be famous and popular.
You are now famous, for you have flaunted your two-picolitre brain
in public. You are quadruply famous, for you have exceeded my two
erstwhile friends and acquaintances, Mr. Meir's Zad and Mr. Merkin,
and they were no havewits, either.
You are now famous, for not only you have proudly declared your
ignorance (an admirable step in itself) but you have also marked
yourself as a credulous dupe (which is a stamenet of intent).
You are now famous, for the entire Linux-IL list will have read
your epistle by now. They will remember you fondly and mention you
from time to time, have no doubt. Tell your children's children that
in some circles you are called:
"That ignorant, credulous, cretinous dupe."
And, of course, you are now popular, for by now at least, you
will save provided some entertainment to the entire Linux-IL
mailing list and to me personally, to my friends, associates, debtors,
creditors, suitors, sailors, tailors and the occasional woman of
ill repute.
Live long and prosper and procreate, for we will, in our
future as a race, need Channel 21 customers like yourself to fuel
the economy.

Yes. You are indubitably right. The kernel not recognizing a major chipset
is indeed the fault of a wrong configuration. No doubt. File lacking a

Ok, let's have a compromise:
1) A Linux Dinner will be organised.
B) The believers will eat Kosher.
III) If it is Passover, the believers will eat Matzoh bread leavened with t
he
blood of Christian children.
Pi) The other believers will not be required to eat the cows.
Lambda) NON-believers will eat the believers after the said believers have
had the chance to themselves eat.
Gimel) Agnostics will not care whom they eat.
Devyat') Sexual deviants will rape the sheep and eat the waitress.
Aht) Unless they prefer the pizza, in which case roles are reversed.
2) The hat should be hung on the lower peg.
d) Do not molest the kormorant.
