I'm having a little trouble with latex.  I did a pkg_manage installation
of tex and latex from the 2.1 CDROM.  When I try to run latex on a
.tex file I get the following error:

This is TeX, Version 3.1415 (C version 6.1)
(Fatal format file error; I'm stymied)
*** Error code 1


Any thoughts on this?

Later,
FM
