I'm having a problem with TeX in the Debian 1.1.1 Distribution.

Whenevr I try to compile a document I get an error message:

Cannot open default format file

When I used to use Slackware TeX ran OK straight from the install.

Any clues as to some config files or config process I should run?

If you mail a reply, mail to

Thanx

John
