I've installed a NetBSD 1.2 system and appear to have problems with a few of the manual pages. When I try to view some pages, I get the following error message: troff: fatal error: font number 1 not a valid font I would get this message when I was viewing, for example, the procmailrc manual page. Having looked through the page source, there doesn't appear to be any .Ft commands that are trying to change the font and I have compared /etc/man.conf against another system that does not have the same problems. Does anyone have any suggestions? Regards, Ade.
