Re: [NTG-context] Geeze, I might try Linux after all... (not too off-tpic I hope)

At least ctxtools --updatecontext should work. The /etc/texmf:/var/lib/texmf:/usr/share/texmf:/usr/share/texmf-texlive are there. Or am I (again) missing something ? On Fri, Jun 20, 2008 at 8:37 AM, Wolfgang Schuster < schuster.wolfgang@googlemail.com> wrote:

Hi,

I've have Ubuntu 8.04 running in a VirtualBox under WXP. No dual boot setup necessary any more. How Cool ! Works like a charm - apart from a USB

problem.

Installed TeX, ConTeXt and XeTeX through the Package Manager (to test whether it worked).

Now trying to update ConTeXt with

ctxtools --updatecontext

which gives

CtxTools | updating /etc/texmf:/var/lib/texmf:/usr/share/texmf:/usr/share/texmf-texlive CtxTools | unable to change to /etc/texmf:/var/lib/texmf:/usr/share/texmf:/usr/share/texmf-texlive

whether I'm in root or not !???

What's the corresponding command for XeTeX ? ( tried --updatexetex which failed )

Why should this work, XeTeX is a binary and ConTeXt a TeX macro package independant of the engine (one fits it all).

Regards Wolfgang
