I have also started to dabble in windbus-python for the sake of Scribes. I have following observations: 1. I don't have Visual Studio 2003 (required for compiling Python 2.x modules) so alternative is to use MinGW. Follow instructions at http://js.cx/~justin/mingw You can skip the GtkGLExt part. 2. Checkout windbus from sourceforge, apply the patch (patch.exe doesn't work on Vista. Rename it to p4tch.exe) 3. Follow the windows build instructions for windbus. It gets compiled correctly :). 4. dbus-python has dependency on dbus AND dbus-glib. But all my attempts of getting dbus-glib to build have failed so for. 5. dbus-python looks at wrong place for python headers, this is very easy to connect and if we can get dbus-glib to build then we are there :) I will keep banging my head & let you know once I have cracked it (or the dbus-python :) P.S. Please CC me in your reply as I am not on the list. Regards, Suraj -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
