MikTeX does help. Quite some users report that the latest version of ConTeXt is currently broken though (and yesterday updating MikTeX was broken). I had no chance to check, but in theory it should work (you need to use MikTeX 2.7). I guess that even the module itself is included in MikTeX. > Download and install rpm packages (or other files) rarely turns > out to be good.

Can you try this? mkdir context && cd context rsync -ptv rsync://contextgarden.net/minimals/setup/first-setup.sh . ./first-setup.sh and then put something like . ~/context/setuptex ~/context to .bash_profile or .bashrc or only execute that command once you need it (it will shield your global tex installation, but you can remove it at any time). This will only "install" a local copy. If you need to fix the global installation, one option is to update "only" ConTeXt files, for example with rsync -av rsync://contextgarden.net/minimals/current/context/current/ location-of-your-distro/texmf-something (test to a temporary location first) But: - you also need to update LM fonts - I would also suggest to update the xetex and xdvipdfmx binary in that case. XeTeX before winter works extremely slowly with latest ConTeXt > "CONTEXT expects a plain ASCII input file.
