@ rahimveron: Which opera version are you usig??I am using the 9.50b and it crashes when I visited any encrypted pages [login,sign-up etc.].

Ya its a beta so dont use it. I am using Opera 9.24 .Get it through Synaptic or from Here
It is always wise to use stable version.

always try to use the software in repo, else you may face dependencies errors & compling errors

Hi everyone.!!
Back again with a [stupid??] query.

Alrite, I want to compile C++ programs on ubuntu for which I installed the Geany IDE from Add/remove programs.But got to know that it can't compile programs, being an IDE.[stupid me ... totally missed that IDE part.! ].
Now, how do I get Geany to compile source files too...??
Also, what do you guys prefer for compiling C++ source files.??

shadyEDIT:
Got over the problem.!!Had to do:

sudo apt-get install g++
and
sudo apt-get install build-essentials.
to get it working.
Also Geany won't compile a file from NTFS partitions. So I had to move all my windows-created projects to / to get them working in Geany.

Thanks,
shady_inc.
