Hi,
Just a shot...
After installation you need to generate the formatfiles: (texmfstart) texexec --make all This will also update your database with the filenames.
texexec --make --all
doesn't help. messages at the end of "texexec --make --all":

strange enough texexec can't find "cont-nl.fmt" !!
can you check what pdftex you have ? pdfetex (e!) is no longer around but your system can still kind of suggest that
Hi Hans just starting pdftex gives the following message: This is pdfeTeX, Version 3.141592-1 b.t.w I have knoppix 5.1.1 installed on my machine and after that I have installed context following the context-wiki for deb. I still haven't the faintest idea what to do now. can you please help me (not a linux and/or tex -guru) out? thanks, jan

pdfetex is obsolete, it's pdftex now (for quite some time already); i don't know where knoppix gets its tex from Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

It's obsolete since 1.40.0, which is only 57 days old. I bet Knoppix is still using teTeX, which is showing it's age. Best Martin

You could try symlinking /etc/texmf/web2c/pdfetex to pdftex or maybe the other way round. That trick worked for me when I was using pdftex 1.30. -Sanjoy `Not all those who wander are lost.' (J.R.R. Tolkien)
