OK, let's start at the basics. Do you know what Usenet is? Do you know
what a News Group is? How about a news server?

Google unfortunatly decided not to use the standards of quoting on Usenet.
A quick fix can be read on the following page:
http://www.safalra.com/special/googlegroupsreply/

If you want to get better help and learn more, please read on.

I sympathize with your problems, and am more than willing to help you
solve them, to do so you should follow the correct quoting priciples as
explained in the FAQ of this group available on
http://www.plainfaqs.org/linux/
While you are at it, read the whole document and the links provided in it
as well.

Due to the bad quoting habits and also due to the abount of drivel comming
from postings done via Google groups, several people have resulted in
killfiling (not reading or responding to) postings done with Google.
This means lesser people will be able or willing to help.

To get the best possible result to your postings, it is better to us a
newsreader or usenet client. Linux has many dedicated news readers, as
well as browsers with built in news readers.

It's not your fault you got sucked in. It is your fault, if you don't act
to remedy the situation.

If you're running SUSE Linux, look on your menu, under Internet --> News,
and you'll see which news readers you have installed. If you run something
else, look for a good newsreader. Don't use an email program.

Find a Usenet server that you can post to. Your ISP probably has one.
There are also free ones out there, that Google will help you locate. Type
in "Usenet free servers". better yet, use this;

The one your provider has is most likely the better, faster and easier
choice. Set up the news reader of your choice, download the groups list,
type linux in the search box, and subscribe to alt.os.linux.suse.
When I see correct quoting from you, instead of what Google is forcing you
to do, I'll be right there to greet you, and help get you going. 'Til then;

I am out of here.
