Hi there, just to prevent confusion: the context rendering (live.contextgarden.net, examples in the wiki) are currently broken. The sysops are working to get it working again. I'll report back if things are working correctly. Patrick -- ConTeXt wiki and more: http://contextgarden.net

To be more precise: I broke it and Patrick is working on fixing it (since I have no idea what I did). So please send all the complaints and angry mails to *my* address and possible suggestions to Patrick's ;) Sorry for that, Mojca

Hi,

ConTeXt seems to be working again. BTW: Mojca has suggested to install a newer version of pdftex (currently 3.141592-1.21a-2.2) on the server. Which distribution would you prefer? The requirements: * debian 3.1 (Intel) * no cdrom available, no ability to mount loopback devices * almost no space limit * I don't want to update the distribution more often then once a year. Feedback welcome Patrick -- ConTeXt wiki and more: http://contextgarden.net

Hi Patrick, tried live ConTeXt and I got no pdf file. I copied the error message from the log file.

Forget my last post, I tried it again and it works now as expected. Wolfgang

Hello Wolfgang,

This is fixed now, thanks for the report. My tests left an unwanted format file in the TeX tree. Patrick -- ConTeXt wiki and more: http://contextgarden.net

Hmm, wouldn't it be best to just update pdftex alone, without anything else? You don't need any cdrom or loopbacks for that. Or what exactly do you mean when you say "distribution"? Is your server used for any TeX-related work other than providing the backend for the garden? Don't know if I'm making sense here, but that's what went through my head... Best Thomas

Yes, this could be an option, right. I didn't think of that choice.

Such as 'tetex', 'texlive' or the minimal distribution from PRAGMA ADE.

No. Thanks for the feedback, (and still collecting wishes) Patrick -- ConTeXt wiki and more: http://contextgarden.net

Hello Patrick, if texlive is an option for you, I could provide a tgz-package. I can build such a package on a SuSE-9.0 or SuSE-10.1 system as this: rpmbuild --rebuild --force http://pmrb.free.fr/texlive/texlive.spm tar -czf /tmp/texlive.tgz /opt/TeX-live /etc/profile.d/texlive.sh Cheers, Peter -- http://pmrb.free.fr/contact/
