Re: Sony Vaio Z and VirtualBox

 

Hi everybody,

I actually have to agree to Norbert.

And I can add from my perspective:
That it would be nice to not have everybody that tries to install an
UBUNTU system gets full user-support via this mailing list (I am talking
about the cases that took in 10-15 back and forth mails and did not
reveal any /new/ or /updated/ information - except for the newbie trying
to use Ubuntu without reading one of the howtos out there already for this).

Norbert:
Maybe the solution is to split off into our own mailing-list?
I could try to organize this.

Adam: Would you join us?

Anyway we were all young once... but a bit more rtfm would be nice :)

Cheers,

Knuth
