Articles:

These articles are meant to help others that perhaps come across similar issues I had with Debian/GNU Linux or development of some kind. Others might just be of a rather random nature. I will try to keep up with any questions, responses, comments and even flames added to them. I am however not resposible for any "rm -rf * type issues that might occur, consider the previous words as my legal disclaimer :-)
