1: Exellent suggestion to put it in the wiki, thats the place.
I will try that as soon as I get wiki access.
But I must admit that it feels like a quite *official* place so I hesitate a bit...
Shouldn't someone with more experience (with Linux) do that? But if no other.....

2: I disagree with you on this. An experienced Linux/SME admin are probably happy with a few hints here and there about what to do.
But for a Windows-guy like me that try to move over to Linux its harder.
I'm spoiled with comprehensive, fool-proof, step-by-step, animated tutorials that starts with "Press power-button gently and then release"-stuff.
So I thougt that a Howto that includes the tweaks for a individual contrib could make the world a little less Micro-fucking-WGA-Activation-BSOD-soft-dependent.

Well that's true but you would have to make some more howtos.
It's better if you write a general howto with contents how to transfer contribs, install them and so on.

Just searh for apropriate place in the wiki and use this mini howto to write a definite howto and you can use this mini howto for example if you think that it's needed.
It doesn't matter if you mess something up because anyone with wiki access can edit your post and fix it if you make a mistake and this mini howto is quite nice and you'll write a great howto. The only thing you need to change is rpm command (yum install is prefered) but other than that it's a good start.
"It should just work" if it doesn't report it. Thanks!

OK, I'll have a shot at the wiki later.
I have searched, tested and added the tweaks to the howto, there are a couple of comments in bold text that I need help with.... Please....

And about howto design: I've already installed sme7admin without a problem, thanks to a good howto by the author.
Even though I didn't get the sensors to work, but I'm in a virtual machine, so no wonder.. (probably no sensors on a virtual motherboard).

Later I will continue with other contribs that I'm interested in, I will probably find similarities, and then I decide if it is one *definite* howto or one for each contrib.

Well the memory limit you marked in bold sets the maximum allowed filesize (eg. you can't upload a file that has 31M only less then 30M if you don't change that setting). It's a good thing if you want to limit uploading of files so people don't upload whole movies in you webshare.

Ah! The coin finally fell down!
-is that also a saying in english/Slovenian?
(what you meant about yum install) I've added that too...

I have updated the Howto to show the file size setting commands etc.
