|
|
I suggest this thread be made sticky:
https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=62426 (xargs boot error).
Even though it is as easy as it could possibly be to search for xargs and find it, some people just won't search... I see at least 8 dupe's in the dupe forum. I only realized this because I refer to that thread whenever finishing a new installation, and these constant dupe's get in the way of finding the original thread more quickly. Anyway, just a suggestion. _________________ Hello. |

Thanks for the suggestion. I haven't personally seen that many dupes for this, but I can see that there are a few. I would like to stick this, but I would also like to have as few stickies as possible since they take a slot off of the first page for each forum and there are already two other stickies in that particular forum. We'll look at this and if we start to get any more threads we'll make it sticky.
As a side note, most larger issues are duped eventually in the forums. So when I need to find the main thread for a large issue, I simply limit my search to the Dups forum. This way I am much more likely to get a solid hit that has a thread with a "follow up here" link posted by the moderator who marked it as a duplicate. I don't have to fight through as many unrelated links and the larger the issue, the more dups there are, and the faster I find the most helpful thread. _________________ if i never try anything, i never learn anything..
