 Your reply was "Cross posting 2 lists is deprecated,
so I dropped freebsd-hardware@
as this question is too basic for hardware@ as well as
questions@."

 My question (to me) seemed relevant to either list.
 The wording of my question was becouse I didn't know
how to phrase it. But your tone suggests (as did your
earlier reply) that beginners are not welcome and you
had better know just what to say and how to say it. 
 The point was that you had suggested that my question
was even too simple even for questions@. Perhaps I did
err on posting to both. Insulting my question and
telling me it was too simple for questions was un
called for and a delightful disincentive to others who
may be new to BSD or just new to UNIX or may have a
question for something they do not know.

 Your just being an arogant snot. I suggest you go
away find a nice rock and learn. Especially some
manners.
 People make errors. It happens. Being snotty to
people over it just shows you need to get out more.

 I appologise for wording my question so ignorantly.
 I asked becouse I didn't know.
