Hi,

I'm in the process of getting TeX and ConTeXt working on a new Linux box.
I've installed the out-of-the-box tetex that comes with SuSE (based on
teTeX-0.9something) without ConTeXt, and then downloaded ConTeXt from
PRAGMA-ADE.  LaTeX and pdflatex seem to be working correctly.  When I try
to run 

texexec.pl --make en

I get

fmtutil: config file `fmtutil.cnf' not found.
! I can't read tex.pool; bad path?

            executable : pdftex
            format(s)  : en

Any clues?  Other installations I have don't have a fmtutil.cnf but also
don't complain that its missing.

What's the tex.pool? Or is that error a consequence of not finding
fmtutil.cnf?

- Matt
