If you are looking for the GUI vim to run on linux
you should be looking for the package vim-gtk, the executable 
is called gvim.

Being a vim user myself, I find it intriguing that there is a graphical
version out there.  However, I don't seem to have it installed.

andrew:andrew$ rpm -qa | grep vi 
vim-common-6.2-11mdk
vim-enhanced-6.2-11mdk
vim-minimal-6.2-11mdk
vixie-cron-3.0.1-56mdk

Looking at http://www.vim.com seems to indicate that I have it already;
what am I missing?
