Albi, Jürgen, thank you,
you are both right: I just realised "start" is a root only specific command
in my Linux, and it is sufficient to execute :!kdvi in order to make it
work.

The reason why I asked this question is because I am trying to use
latex-suite and to view dvi compiled documents with kdvi from inside gvim
with the \lv command; it does not work (no error message) and I just can't
figure out why. So I tested the :!start kdvi, it didn't work and I inferred
this was the problem. But apparently it isn't, so I'm still scratching my
head looking for the real source of the problem.

Thanks again
Régis B.
