An improved search is very much on the roadmap and can be tested at both AQ and CQ.

When you see this, feel free to post a note asking the OP to include the solution in a follow-up. Ideally we can minimize these.

Thanks for the feedback. The blog is certainly an area that could use some attention.
If this wasn't for LQ, I would never have tried Slackware and would never have discovered the fact that there exists an bunch of awesome guys who devote their free time to help the Linux newcomers and anybody with a query, not just tell them to RTFM.
This forum tops my list of other Tech/Linux forums I've joined. Kudos to Jeremy, all the mods and all the members. I'll go have a beer today.
LQ is a great forum not only for the fact that it's the only one that covers any form of Linux you can imagine, but for the generosity and helpfulness of its members.
