[GLLUG] Linux OS and dvi2html

[Chick Tower]

What Linux distribution and version were you using when dvi2html worked? 
  What are you using now?

Debian seems to have a reports of bugs with it from 2003 and 2007.  I 
can't tell if it ever got fixed, but here's some patch for a specific 
version of the TeX-Guy package:

http://patch-tracking.debian.net/patch/debianonly/view/tex-guy/1.3.2-5


Even if you're using Debian, I don't know if this helps.  I'm not a 
Debian user.


dvi2html seems to be part of the TeX-Guy package in both SUSE and 
Debian, so maybe the TeX-Guy project home page can help:

Perhaps you can find some help in TeX-related Google Groups:

Or, searching there for dvi2html:
