Hey guys, tried to start using vim, having this really weird problem with gvim on my laptop: I have the following .vimrc, I just wanted it to change to the colorscheme "slate" upon startup, but havn't had any success yet. Here's the my .vimrc file, what am I doing wrong?

" An example for a vimrc file.
"
" Maintainer:    Bram Moolenaar <Bram@vim.org>
" Last change:    2006 Nov 16
"
" To use it, copy it to
"     for Unix and OS/2:  ~/.vimrc
"          for Amiga:  s:.vimrc
"  for MS-DOS and Win32:  $VIM\_vimrc
"        for OpenVMS:  sys$login:.vimrc

" When started as "evim", evim.vim will already have done these settings.
if v:progname =~? "evim"
  finish
endif

" Use Vim settings, rather then Vi settings (much better!).
" This must be first, because it changes other options as a side effect.
set nocompatible

" allow backspacing over everything in insert mode
set backspace=indent,eol,start

set history=50        " keep 50 lines of command line history
set ruler        " show the cursor position all the time
set showcmd        " display incomplete commands
set incsearch        " do incremental searching

" For Win32 GUI: remove 't' flag from 'guioptions': no tearoff menu entries
" let &guioptions = substitute(&guioptions, "t", "", "g")

" Don't use Ex mode, use Q for formatting
map Q gq

" Switch syntax highlighting on, when the terminal has colors
" Also switch on highlighting the last used search pattern.
if &t_Co > 2 || has("gui_running")
  syntax on
  set hlsearch
endif

" Only do this part when compiled with support for autocommands.
if has("autocmd")

  " Enable file type detection.
  " Use the default filetype settings, so that mail gets 'tw' set to 72,
  " 'cindent' is on in C files, etc.
  " Also load indent files, to automatically do language-dependent indenting.
  filetype plugin indent on

  " Put these in an autocmd group, so that we can delete them easily.
  augroup vimrcEx
  au!

  " For all text files set 'textwidth' to 78 characters.
  autocmd FileType text setlocal textwidth=70

  " When editing a file, always jump to the last known cursor position.
  " Don't do it when the position is invalid or when inside an event handler
  " (happens when dropping a file on gvim).
  autocmd BufReadPost *
    \ if line("'\"") > 0 && line("'\"") <= line("$") |
    \   exe "normal! g`\"" |
    \ endif

  augroup END

else

  set autoindent        " always set autoindenting on

endif " has("autocmd")

:colo native

set tabstop=4
set shiftwidth=4
set expandtab
set textwidth=70
set grepprg=grep\ -nH\ $*
