After a long abscence I am using linux again. This time I work with ubuntu and for me it was never easier to start with.

The installation process is much more straight forward than suse (8 I think). The interface is clean and not overcrowded and the software installation system is good. But why do I have to uncomment the repository "universe" to get it accessed. *** I don't: I just have to click on the unactivated items and it asks me if I want to activate the universe repository. Thank you!***

And I just wanted to compile kismet and since I am not used to not have it installed I choose some gcc komponents and tried to start.

But I utterly failed at the start ./configure said something about my compiler not beeing able to create executables. Great! Just spent 3 hours trying to solve this problem but have not been very successful. So I just grabbed the kismet withing the repository.

So long.
