Gnome-Help
1st I have not had time to check 2 years worth of mailing list archives
to see if there is already a answer to this problem. Soo...
PREAMBLE:
After alleviating what I believe might have been hardware problems I
finally installed the Woody distribution of Debian GNU/Linux on my
system. I managed to solve a few problems, and now have a rudimentary
working system.
At installation time I selected (from tasksel): all of the 'end user'
tasks, except the laptop tasks; only the 'print server' tasks from the
'servers' task list; all of the 'development' tasks; and 'Tex/LaTex'.
After the installation, the graphical login was not displaying properly,
however, I corrected the configuration of XFree86 for my monitor. I also
managed to figure out and configure Mozilla Mail so that the system now
dials my ISP whenever I try to access either my E-mail or a WWW site.
I then installed 'kwuftpd', 'webmin-wuftpd', and 'wu-ftpd'.
PROBLEM:
When I select 'Programs' / 'Help System' from the Gnome menu the 'Gnome
Help Browser' starts, however, the 'Location:' box contains only 'toc:'
and the main sub-window contains 'Could not load default TOC page'
Someone I spoke to suggested that I 1st run 'dpkg-reconfigure
gnome-help' which did not change anything. Then to use dselect to remove
the package, which I did, and purge the package, which I have not
figured out how to do. Finally to install the package again.
Can anyone help me solve this problem?
