Sorry, I should have told you... That article is rather outdated.
The developers of Vüdü Linux dropped support for badgers.
To get TeX running on Vüdü, it would be best to use a dead lion, but
those are hard to get by and tend to go feral on you.
Try a domestic cat.
The only variant of TeX that runs on Vüdü nowadays is LunaticTeX; its
native output format is DeVIl, but it also supports LightScribe via
SilverLight. To get PDF output, you need to form a golem from adobe
and plug it via a fresh umbilical cord (stem cell quality).
Maybe also Knuth’s iTeX will run, if you can afford a transdimensional
license.
Seasoned greetlings,
Hraban
