Re: Compilation Problem

[Mats Bengtsson]

This indicates that you don't have a complete installation of
teTeX. I don't know about the Slackware packages, but maybe
they have split teTeX into several packages and you are missing
one of them.

Actually, the file mf.base itself is actually created by texconfig,
which is normally done during the installation of teTeX. Try to
run texconfig as root, choose the menu item MODE and set the mode
to 'ljfour' (or whatever suits your printer better). This should
recreate the mb.base file.
