Fixing fonts in gVim under Windows

December 23rd, 2008

Nowadays, I was forced to work at the office doing Web Dev using machine. caused real headaches to setup some of the things from scratch to make in work like on my old machine.

I haven’t thought that vim’ll look so weird from the side, however alternative seemed more adecvate, but the problem got me googling at the point of setting up correct for the themes.

An old fonts vim plugin cause lots of errors, so I had to use SVN to get latest fixes for the .vim plugin. You can check in the trunk of the repository; worked perfectly for me, just copy-paste to your \plugins\ directory, and play around the font-size.

KDE on Windows XP

Good news, team started migration of original applications for platform. Concerning windows.kde.org, users of XP/2000/2003 can easily install famous apps like Konqueror, Kate and others on their machines, via KDE-installer.

If some of the applications don’t work from the beginning, just add KDEDIRS and Path in your Control Panel, as ’s described in the manual.

So far, I found only one minor thing: I couldn’t manage applications via Konqueror, however needs some googling.

In general, lots of positive feelings for this great move of , because some of the apps in can’t be compared with scanty alternatives.

November 8th, 2007

Finally, I’ve got time to fix this bug.

After upgrading my Internet Explorer 6 up to the seventh version, Add/Remove window in Control Panel wasn’t loading. After a bit of googling the problem was solved:

1.win+r, load “regedit32″
2.Go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
3. -> Microsoft -> -> Uninstall
4.Find “ie7″ folder and in the right side menu look for for “Uninstall string” row
5.Follow the Uninstall string and extract .exe file which will handle uninstalling IE7.
6.Restart your PC.

After , everything loads fine now. The only disadvantage - you’ve got your Internet Explorer 6 back :)
