been using Geany under Ubuntu since I started studying Business Informatics. Now being in the second semester our classes changed from C to C++ and I found that Geany isn't so good for C++ because it lacks a decent auto-completion (e.g. member functions of STL are not shown).
Does anyone know a light IDE with decent auto completion?

codeblocks, or devcpp
I was looking for the exact opposite thing you did, thanks.

Save for how much autocompletion sucks, even in its absolute best implementation (MS IntelliSense), no, I don't think there's a single C++ IDE with any sort of half-way decent auto completion.
What you SHOULD do as a programmer is read the documentation

Linux isn't retarded, but VS is what most professionals use. Most professionals are actually retarded, though, in a loose sense of the word "retarded." Their intellectual growth has been "retarded" or "obstructed" by being forced to develop for the most popular platform. If you're lucky enough to have the freedom to choose any target OS and development platform, then use Linux and emacs and enjoy your simplified life.
Emacs Gnus do their best now and are preparing.
Please watch warmly until it is ready.

I use vim (minimally configured), my terminal emulator, coreutils, and a tiling WM to do everything. No graphical file manager, no IDE autocomplete, etc.
Is it the most efficient way to work? No.
Do I find myself wishing I had a decent C/Lua autocompleter for Vim? Yes, and I'm sure there already are a few.
Could I eliminate most of my switches from Vim to terminal emulators if I studied Vim commands just a little bit more? Probably.
What I do get with this setup is an incredibly simple working environment that never gets in my way, even if it often refuses to lend a helping hand.
