You should be able to find more than you want to read by pointing your
web browser of choice to (assuming you have tetex-doc installed):

    /usr/share/doc/texmf/index.html

    or

    /usr/doc/texmf/index.html (if you are running slink)

This is a sort of master index that links to a whole bunch of
*.dvi.gz files.  To read these files, either configure your browser
to automatically view these files with xdvi, or just save the
*.dvi.gz file to a temporary place, and then gunzip / view using
xdvi.  You could also print them using dvips.

I think these are the original .dtx files converted into *.dvi
files for our convenience by the Debian developer who maintains
tetex-doc.
