[NTG-context] Installation problem

[Pavel Stupin]

Dear ConTeXt developers and users,

Please excuse me for bothering you with such a trivial question, but I 
still would really appreciate your help.

I've downloaded the current ConTeXt version and generated the format 
files. Now, when I try to invoke texexec to process a test file 
("\starttext Test \stoptext") the script complains the following way:

***********************

This is pdfeTeX, Version 3.14159-1.10a-2.1 (Web2C 7.4.4) (format=cont-en 
2006.4.8)  8 APR 2006 10:50

Could you please advise me what I'm supposed to do to have the metric 
files found and whether I must update my obsolete pdfTeX and eTeX to 
handle the problem.

Also, I'm interested if Russian language is supported by ConTeXt "out of 
the box" or not.


Thank you in advance!

Kind regards,
Pavel Stupin.
