Date: Wed, 27 Apr 2011 20:38:06 +0200	[thread overview]

I wouldn't have followed the advice to change the path, as I'm using 
MikTeX too and I know that the path settings might interfer. The command 
prompt is fine, I can Alt-Tab out of my editor and compile a tex file - 
that's not too inconvenient.

Compiling a test document actually works, it scanned through the fonts 
and finished without errors, even with \usemodule[tikz]. Actually using 
tikz did not work first, but I installed the module and now it works.

And nobody commented the kpathsea601.dll copy!?

Regards

Christoph
