Hi,

I just upgrade my system to Mandriva 2005LE which ships tetex 3.0.

As I am used to, I ran texconfig to set up my system. In addition to default modes for printing, I usually add babel to plain tex with 4 languages: english, french, german and italian.

In particular, when editing the formats file, I changed (as suggested)

tex  tex   language.dat    -translate-file=cp227.tcx bplain.ini

and in the hyphenation file for tex the only not commented lines are:

--------------------------

american ushyph1.tex
=USenglish

british.
=english

french          frhyph.tex
=patois

german          dehypht.tex
=austrian

italian ithyph.tex

nohyphenation zerohyph.tex

---------------------------

Usually, after having done this, everything worked fine. This time, I can't get any trace of babel in tex:

-----

This is TeX, Version 3.141592 (Web2C 7.5.4)
**\bye

I also made some test with my tex files.

Nevertheless, when I changed the format, the log displayed

fmtutil: /root/.texmf-var/web2c/tex.fmt installed.

So it seems that my languages have been loaded correctly.

Can anybody please help me?

Best regards
