andLinux Installation Troubleshooting

Check out this screenshot :

It’s andLinux, a Linux distribution based on Kubuntu 6.10 with a coLinux kernel which runs under any Windows NT (here in Windows XP SP2 with Zune Theme, running KDevelop, Konsole and Synaptic, alongside with Firefox for Windows, Excel 2007 and Adobe Photoshop CS). What’s cool is that unlike virtualization solutions, its kernel runs on real CPU hardware (albeit limited to 1 core). And unlike CygWin/X is not an abandoned project and it runs Linux x86 binaries without recompiling.

It’s cool and performance seems to be good, albeit memory constrained. Integration between Windows and Linux environments is very high. Check it out and take into account Topologilinux, a Slackware+coLinux distribution.

On a side note I had problems during installation with a batch file running forever without any result.

I took these steps to have it working (it may break your system, don’t bother me if it does) :

Rasende Roboter (Ricochet Robots) complexity

OK. I’m the only one to get excited by this… but there is a proof that Rasende Roboter (Ricochet Robots in the USA) is an NP-Complete problem! It’s weird. When you are given an NP Complete problem.. you can feel as a sixth sense that it’s NP Complete. But finding the proof is ofter quite harder :)

Wow! Your Guest Book - Is Awesome!

OK.

I was on holidays (Porto Santo.. wonderful place! :D I will upload my photos on flickr sooner or later) and got back to work a couple of weeks ago. I sorted out comments just today.
In the next few weeks I will surely be busy because I have found a few ONLINE CHEAPEST PHARMACY with the “cheap cialis” I just needed and then I have so many porn and “teen amateur cams” to watch I just can’t get the time to read comments; so I (temporarily ?) disabled them. As soon as my penis is large enough thanks to the new techniques coming in every day, I will reenable them.
Now some notes to spammers :

1) Santa Maria Novella is a church in Ravenna (and a station in Florence), not a porn star (at least I hope there isn’t one).

2) “This is test-spam message, if you want stop spam on your site - just email me: xxxx@xxx.xx and your site will be immediately removed from spam-base.” Is not a good technique to get new mail addresses to be spammed, although we should never underestimate people stupidity… Beside, I think offering protection from spam using spam could be considered .. mafia.

3) If you translate your message in Italian, use a real translator. The following messages are not italian :
