I have the same problem, typing gvim or vim -g starts up vim with syntax highlighting etc. turned on, but in a console without the GUI.
I assume I must be missing some gnome libs, as I haven't installed any other gnome stuff, is this the problem? I thought it would be taken care of in the dependencies when I did the apt-get install vim-gtk. What packages have I missed? > On Wed, Mar 20, 2002 at 10:41:25PM +0100, Thomas wrote: > > Hello, > > > > I've installed vim-gtk with apt-get, but I cannot find /usr/bin/gvim, > > it's just a link to vim.
