This page is my "blog".
It's just a place to leave some thoughts and things that are going on. Some will be about software, some about humans and some about both. I'll try not to post about the brand of my new toothbrush unless it's really important :-)

For my new Prolog tutorial job, I need a laptop, to show slides on the bamer.
Until I have my own, I lended my father's, with no LAN connection...
Because Windows ME had troubles, of course, I decided to just install the latest Ubuntu distro and see how that works.
Of course, I wouldn't be able to upgrade anything via apt-get, because I wouldn't be able to connect to the internet. But I thought that Ubuntu comes well-packed, with all the basic stuff you need.
Well, when I wanted to install Prolog on it (last-minute style in the mensa, of course), it told me that it lacked any C-Compiler. What the...? A Linux without a C-Compiler? It's true: http://distrowatch.com/weekly.php?issue=20051219#2
Yes, the world hates you when you don't have internet...
