HI!

I'm using openSUSE 10.2 and something seems to be screwed up for TeX fonts:

Executing /sbin/conf.d/SuSEconfig.tetex...

Finished.

This results in

! LaTeX Error: File `times.sty' not found.

I tried to follow some advice found via Google with mktexlsr etc. but no
sucess.

Any hint is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Ciao, Michael.
