My first guess would be that you have some old files in your ~/.texmf-var directory which are not upwards compatible. Try to move this directory out of the way and run latex again; I assume the proper files will be created automatically then. You could first check if a "fresh" user has the same problem when running latex. -- Regards, Florian -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
