Funny you would write something like that. Patience is not all that
matters. Often it's the newbie who is not (!) patient enough and doesn't
show any interest in examining/learning/fixing something. Instead, there
are complaints and rushed reinstalls (only to run into the same problem
later, giving reason again to complain).

Patrick's initial post in this thread has been clear and is unrelated
