Spoon feeding

Spoon feeding

[Nicholas Krause]

Greetings All, 
After thinking for a few days I have come to the conclusion that the communities definition of spoon feeding and my are different.  If someone would like to give me the community definition so there is no more misunderstandings and time wasting that would  be great.

Spoon-feeding = Actually explaining to you now what "spoon-feeding" means.

I know what it means however whenever I ask a question, I always get the response do more research.  I  am  wondering if this is due to a lack of effort on my part or a misunderstanding that I am putting in time but my questions are too open ended.

Judging from what you posted on here so far it's your lack of effort and
the fact that you keep trolling this list with nonsensical requests and
replies that clearly show that you have no technical understanding
whatsoever. This has been talked about too many times.

You're not even capable of spelling your name correctly.

  let me explain this with a comparison.  here's the kind of question
you *should* ask:

  "hi. i want to know more about X, so i read the files under the
Documentation/ directory and wrote a simple test program to try it
out. but i'm confused because the output of the program doesn't match
what the Doc file suggested, so i added some printk() statements and
here's the output in /var/log/messages where things don't seem to
match what i thought i should be seeing. i've attached the sample
program, and i've posted the entire program output to dropbox where
people can look at it. this is all being done on a freshly-compiled
3.18 kernel."

  and here's the kind of question you *do* ask:

  "hi, i want to know more about X, can someone drop everything
they're doing and explain it to me?"

  see the difference, nick?

p.s. this post was, unsurprisingly, a waste of time.
