I have SuSE 6.4 installed on my system at work and had installed both vim-5.6-19 as well as gvim-5.6-23. I remember that when I had compiled this on Solaris, that gvim had the option to compile with either the athena widgets (puke), X11, or gtk widgets. I compiled it to use the gtk widgets on the Solaris system. The rpm that came with SuSE 6.4 is compiled to use only the athena widgets! Why is that? Does anyone know if there is an rpm for gvim that has been compiled to use the gtk widgets? I have helixcode GNOME on my system as well. If there isn't an rpm I guess I could just download the source and compile and install it. I just like using rpms.

I don't know if there is such an RPM but you can easily build one yourself. Just install the GVim source RPM, edit the spec file and change --enable-gui to --enable-gui=gtk. Then compile the package with `rpm -ba gvim.spec'. Ciao, Stefan
