More Vista woes
penny September 9th, 2007
* I’ve braved the Palm Desktop Software BETA for Vista. It seems to work… for now. Only, I can’t seem to link Outlook properly to the handheld Calendar. This kink can be annoying when I’m on the notebook and want to sync with my handheld. But the other direction is good.
*Still on Palm, Adobe refuses to work on Vista. Then I checked online, and apparently, Adobe says “NO” to Vista updates. Geeeesh. All those eBooks!!
*I’ve tried 2 different MikTeX releases.. off to my third, 2.6. I’m not sure what is going on yet. Seeing I need LaTeX running on this machine soon, I’ve got TeXMaker 1.6lined up to install next. If all fails, I might resort to using notepad and compiling remotely from Uni. But then again, will XMing work in Vista?
* putty seems to work.
* Nero 6 is incomaptible. For now, the system file CD writer is enough. I will need Nero soon for creating media discs.
* I cannot install R at all.
* Nor can I GCC.
* Have yet to try Perl and Python…
