Hi, thanks for all your quick help!!!! Quick comments: Tim, the main repository at http://catalogue.tableteer.nokia.com/certified/ cannot be disabled. Marius, yes, indeed, it was just an .install file. Even though I still cannot connect to catalogue.tableteer.nokia.com (for whatever reason), the package for VIM was received from http://mg.pov.lt/770 and that got populated into the application manager even though the tableteer repositories timed out after minutes. So, I got VIM installed. Makuchaku, thanks for the tip. But even for that you need an X terminal which I had not had initially... So, thanks to Marius' comments I downloaded the relevant .deb files via my PC to the N800 and when "installing from file" the .deb packages, the application manager does the job.
