| slaxemulator@7 | 27 |
| slaxemulator@7 | 28 No problem! We are happy to hear your question over at our [[http://forum.slitaz.org/|Support Forum]] -- or even the [[http://www.slitaz.org/en/mailing-list.html|Mailing List]] if it is a more lengthy discussion -- once you have looked through our [[http://doc.slitaz.org/en:start|documentation]]! |

| slaxemulator@7 | 30 Answering questions takes time however, to answer them well slightly longer. This time could be better spent for other necessary things, like improving SliTaz or writing documentation. |
| slaxemulator@7 | 31 |
| slaxemulator@7 | 32 ** Your first post should include the following things: ** |
| slaxemulator@7 | 33 |
| slaxemulator@7 | 34 * detailed information about your hardware |
| slaxemulator@7 | 35 * e.g the manufacturer and model of your computer, motherboard or (even better) detailed chip information. The latter can be found by running the following command and uploading the generated //SysInfo.txt// file: |
| slaxemulator@7 | 36 |
| slaxemulator@7 | 37 <code> |
| slaxemulator@7 | 38 echo '=== PCI Devices: ===' >> SysInfo.txt && lspci >> SysInfo.txt && echo '=== USB Devices: ===' \ |
| slaxemulator@7 | 39 >> SysInfo.txt && lsusb >> SysInfo.txt && echo '=== Kernel Modules: ===' >> SysInfo.txt && lsmod >> SysInfo.txt |
| slaxemulator@7 | 40 </code> |
| slaxemulator@7 | 41 |
| slaxemulator@7 | 42 * precise information about your SliTaz installation: |
| slaxemulator@7 | 43 * which version to you have? Stable or Cooking? |
| slaxemulator@7 | 44 * are you using the standard ISO or a specific flavor (XVESA, Lo-RAM etc.)? |
| slaxemulator@7 | 45 * is it installed on a HD or on an USB stick? |
| slaxemulator@7 | 46 * do you know which file-system you used? |
| slaxemulator@7 | 47 |
| slaxemulator@7 | 48 * identify when your problem appeared: |
| slaxemulator@7 | 49 * was it just after installation or after an update? |
| slaxemulator@7 | 50 * were there any changes to your normal usage pattern or configuration? |
| slaxemulator@7 | 51 |
| slaxemulator@7 | 52 This should provide enough system information for help to be provided. |
