rem2ps not working

Hello Remind Fans,

I am using the latest version of remind and rem2ps.  Recently I
upgrading my linux version from Fedora Core 2 to 3 using anaconda.  I
can't imagine why that would matter, but I can't think of what else
might have caused rem2ps to produce unuseable .ps files.  rem2ps does
not give me an error, but I can't open, print, or convert to pdf using
ghostscript since the upgrade.  Any ideas?

Thanks,

What is the output of rem2ps? Is it a postscript file? Does it start
with %!PS-Adobe-2.0?

This sounds like it could be a ghostscript problem. Can you open any
other files with ghostscript?

Re: rem2ps not working

just clairifying, you had the latest remind installed an working, and
then did the upgrade from fc2 to fc3?

my guess is to reinstall remind, perhaps it needs to relink with some
new libs or someting befor it will work again.
