The San Diego based Kernel Panic Linux Users Group has a very
knowledgable, free-wheeling, mostly unmonitored mailing list that is a
trove of help and information. They also have a newbie list that the gurus
watch and respond to. The list can be high traffic, but doesn't approach
myth-users in volume (presently my biggest input). KPLUG has regular
contributors from all over the world. Even Kansas ;-)

All their mailing lists may be joined through their web site:

About the only list rule (unwritten in this case) is don't snap at the
people trying to help you. But you don't appear to have a chip on your
shoulder, and the people who do ... well, it's probably too late to help
them with that.
