I have no idea what "gui" you're referring to.
However, when I try to run Python on vista, I get:
The application has failed to start because its side-by-side
configuration is incorrect. Please see the application event log for
more detail.
Hi!
Another way is to de-activate UAC.

He's not stupid. Disabling UAC is the recommended way to get rid of
these problems.

Microsoft have now admitted that they implemented UAC not to improve
security but to cause complaints from customers so that application
vendors would stop their programs from taking actions that needed UAC
confirmation. http://arstechnica.com/news.ars/post...annoy-you.html

That depends entirely on your audience. For developers, UAC is provably
detrimental to productivity. I have no hesitation recommending its
disablement in that case. As a driver developer, I use Device Manager a
LOT. It didn't take me long to pull the plug.
Now, if you have an office floor full of secretaries and salesmen, then I
think they SHOULD be frightned if they touch the wrong buttons.

YOU don't recommend it. I don't "recommend" it either - all the people I

without recommendation.

Be that as it may, it is still enabled by default, isn't it?
So advice that requires it to be disabled (or the Administrator
account enabled) ought to mention such a pertinent fact, shouldn't it?

I know, I know - flame away but its not clear to me if Python will run
on a system running Microsoft Vista. Is anyone successfully running
Python on Vista? If so, is it what version of Python are you
running? I'm ordering a new system and if Python won't work on Vista
then it will definately influence the OS selection.
Thanks in advance!

A very odd error with Python 2.5 (both 2.5.1 and 2.5.2 from the
official msi installers and running on Vista under Parallels on the
Mac).
'import site' fails due to a string in sys.path that contains a huge
number of null bytes.
The error is actually in ntpath - I adjusted it to print the paths it
is working with and a string on encountering the bad path.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
