B.5. Questions for Technical Support
Technical support is both a science and a mystical art form. In most cases, support technicians must
rely on customer observations and communications with the customer in order to diagnose and solve
the problem. Therefore, it is extremely important that you are as detailed and clear as possible when
you state your questions and report your problems. Examples of what you should include are:
•
Symptoms of the problem (for example: "Linux is not able to access my CD-ROM drive. When it
tries, I get timeout errors.")
•
When the problem began (for example: "My system was working fine until yesterday, when a
lightning storm hit my area.")
•
Any changes you made to your system (for example: "I added a new hard drive and used
Partition
Wizzo to add Linux partitions.")
•
Other information that may be relevant to your situation, such as the installation method (CD-ROM,
NFS, HTTP)
•
Specific hardware devices that may be relevant to your problem (for example: If you cannot setup
networking, what kind of network card do you have?)
