Good evening.
After some time I tried to install the newest ConTeXt over my old teTeX
in SuSE Linux 9.2. Everything seems to work. I use texexec version 5.4.3
with ConTeXt version 2005.08.31. ConTeXt gives this warning:
systems : pdfTeX version 110 -> please update
systems : eTeX version 201 -> too old (bugs)
Then it failes on the minimal file:
% output=pdf
\starttext
text
\stoptext
and gives this error:
! Missing { inserted.
<to be read again>
r
<argument> \pdfobj r
eserveobjnum {}\setxvalue \pdffontresource {\the

\firstofoneargument #1->#1

\fi \fi \ifcsname
\pdffont...
\firstofoneargument #1->#1
\doincludepdffontresource ...cludepdffontresource
\fi
...
l.5 \stoptext
What's the problem? The old pdfetex? How can I upgrade it without
reinstalling the whole SuSE system? I wouldn't mind to reject the teTeX
and use Pragma's mimimum TeX distribution, but it does'nt include
Metafont and I still need some .mf bitmapped fonts.
Can you help me please?
Your sincerely
Michal Kvasnicka

Many thanks. I tried it, but make-process failed. It is a long time
since I last compiled something, so I'm completely lost. Isn't the
binary package for SuSE 9.2 somewhere on the net? My attempts to find it
out failed. :-( It looks I will have to upgrade my system. :-(((

Nonetheless, many thanks anyway.

Look for RPM package of teTeX 3.0 for SUSE 9.2, normally in update tree.
If not found, you can build teTeX 3.0 from source. It takes me about
10' to have teTeX 3.0 with latest ConTeXt running under Linux Fedora.
Good luck,

unix distributions are often quite behind with tex; you can try the minimal linux distribution on our web site

Hi All,
how to make a boxed formula with ConTeXt?
Thanks!

The way I usually do it:
\startformula
\mframed[offset=.3em,rulethickness=1pt]{a^2 + b^2 = c^2}
\stopformula

Thank you for your answer. I seems that "\startformula .. \stopformula"
doesn't have any effect to produce a "dispaly mode" formula.
so:
\startformula
\mframed[offset=.3em,rulethickness=1pt]{a^2 + b^2 = c^2}
\stopformula
and:
\mframed[offset=.3em,rulethickness=1pt]{a^2 + b^2 = c^2}
give the same result, as in text mode.
Is there a way to get, for example, the output of:
\startformula
I=x-\sqrt2\,arctg\frac{x}{\sqrt2}+C
\stopformula
boxed?
Thank you.

Jilani,

When I try:
\startformula
\mframed[offset=.3em,rulethickness=1pt]{
I=x-\sqrt2\,\arctan\frac{x}{\sqrt2}+C}
\stopformula
it does typeset a displayed formula. However, you could still force
displayed style by adding a \displaystyle command at the beginning of
your \mframed argument.
Regards,
David

Good evening.
Many thanks to all of you that helped me to install teTeX 3.0. I found
that I can really use SuSE 9.3 rpms under my SuSE 9.2, which quite
surprised me. (I can't use Mr. Hagen's minimumdistribution, because
there is no MetaFont in it, and I still use some bitmapped fonts, e.g.
Concrete Math).
Now I have to solve the last (I hope so) problem: The Czech encoding. I
have all my input files in ISO Latin 2 encoding. It was no problem up to
now because I used fonts with IL2 encoding. What shoud I do now the new
LM fonts?
(BTW, is it all right that I have to include
\loadmapfile[psclean.map]
in all my documents? LM fonts are not preloaded, and I can't find in
teTeX 3.0 pdftex.conf to include it.)
(In the last two years I missed all font-related changes in ConTeXt.
What manuals should I read to understand how to use ConTeXt properly?)
With many thanks
Michal Kvasnicka
P.S. And by the way, in the future I may need to switch all my inputs
into UTF8. How can I typeset files like that in the ConTeXt? Many thanks.

The official rpms are under ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/ (but you
probably already know that).
If you don't succeed to "make" and if you would like to use teTeX 3.0, try if
rpm --i tetex-3.0-13.i586.rpm
on ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/9.3/suse/i586/tetex-3.0-13.i586.rpm
fails or not. Perhaps you have some luck and it will work. (I just
installed some packeges from an older CD and it worked.) Btw, Suse
10.0 contains not only the latest teTeX, but also the latest ConTeX,
which is a kind of miracle!!!
Minimal distribution doesn't mean that you have to throw the existing
distribution away. It's pretty isolated and works well for most cases
- it usually completely ignores the existing distribution and you can
use the minimal ConTeXt without root/administrator privileges.
All you have to do is to extract the files for minimal distribution to
any folder and run setuptex (each time you go to the shell, but you
can add a line to .[someshell]rc).
... Unless you need metafont for generating your ConTeXt documents.
