This is not the right place for the issue. But for asking your question you should first choose the right forum for your issue and then start a new thread there. If you are sure where to ask just use Linux Newbie forum.

I have moved your question to it's own thread in Linux-Newbie. I would also strongly suggest you read How to Use LinuxQuestions.org and How to Ask A Question as these tutorials will give you a basic understanding of the site.

You successfully started a new thread (and asked a question) on Sept 14. What am I missing??

He actually posted this in a thread started by jeremy. Xavier moved to a separate thread.

He did? Doesn't say that in the thread - it's possible (but
highly unlikely) that any of us mods split a post out of a
thread w/o mention, though.

Cheers,

Moved: This thread is more suitable in <Feedback & Suggestions> and has been moved accordingly to help your thread/question get the exposure it deserves.

Post#3 - I didn't specify where it came from, but I did say that I had separated out the posts.

But that's about this very thread here? Pixelanny was
referring to a different thread - look at the date. The
OP has managed to actually start a thread by the looks
of it?

I think this was originally in the Oscon thread or the "LQ is 9" thread, something like that.

Oh ok ... in that case: it was shoddy moderation, and I apologise to chaitanya :}

So he did. All cleared up now

linuxlover.chaitanya · 11-02-2009, 12:15 AM

But I did not take it personally and just mentioned where I replied to him. There is no need to be sorry actually but I would not say anything, may be you have got rules for moderators as well.
