I am a software developper working on both Linux and Windows. I'm dealing mostly with C/C++, and working on multiple levels of development (from GUI to device drivers). I'm using Ubuntu on both my dev and personal computers.

How can I prevent eyestrain? Regarding the refresh rate: can you see how much it is on windows (if different)? Also on Windows, are you using some 'polishing' tools like ClearType? |

Does Visual Studio Express work well with Wine? I've tried it some times ago, for my job. I had to stop for stability purpose. As TJ Ellis says: it's worth trying again, after some time. But you also should know that, if it works at one point, it may break some times later with a new update... So if you really NEED it to work flowlessly, it may be safer to make it run on its 'real' environment. Personally, I have a Windows VM for that purpose, and it works fine. But of course, your needs may differ from mine. |

Which package contains the C standard library? Daniel is right: libc6-amd64 (and its 'dev' version) are usefull only for cross-compiling from i386. Whatever your platform, if you want to build for the same platform, you only need libc6/libc6-dev. |

Which package contains the C standard library? build-essential is actually a dummy package, which has dependencies on "all you need to make a build". Very usefull, as you seldom know about all the libraries you'll actually need when building your applications from sources. But overkill if you only need the glibc. |

What constitutes a bug? I tend to say "undocumented features" rather than hidden :-) |
