In that case, then adding "my Foobar computer with XYZ video and KLM
memory experiences a similar problem under ABC conditions" would be
both helpful, and "me too". But if one is not helping the OP answer
his question, then he is drowning the signal in noise. That would get
a poster banned very quickly from most Linux mailing lists.
