   There is nothing 'wrong with' your OS, agent, or NSP.  This froup is   
   very quiet.   
      
   I see more activity in other linux groups I visit, such as aol & aol.mint.   
      
   The ubuntu forum, otoh, is very active.  Historically, if I ask a   
   question in a newsgroup when I haven't been able to find an answer by   
   looking around elsewhere, and feel that I 'have to' ask my question in a   
   web forum, and then I get an answer there because there is more   
   'attention' in the web forum, I have always come back to the newsgroup   
   and posted my solution, in an effort to keep my /preferred/ exchange   
   method alive and well.   
      
   Times change; people's behaviors change.  Some of the people who 'used   
   to' be active in newsgroups don't do that anymore.   
      
   Also, if you are looking for help for a question, searching in the Ub   
   web forum is a pretty good source of information.  There are some very   
   strong 'advisors' there.
