For that I apologize. I don't think full diffs are always required to every questions. yes, at times there are people/questions that also go beyond the patience level of a full reply. I should have said that simple description the culprit, AND where to get the fix is very helpful. there are times it is not possible to get the current working set of the total software. and for most people, they should not be running the current working set of the total software. lastly, sometimes (and I DEFINITELY DO NOT MEAN THIS CASE) the response "it works in XXX's current" seems to me to be used to down play the other free OSes. I should have totally expressed my views in that article to not imply more on that one reply. --mark.
