The kernel-doc package provides a bunch of documentation in the Documentation/DocBook directory as .tmpl files. I'm trying to figure out how to view them. They come up fine in an editor as SGML, but I want to see the formatted result. Nautilus seems to know that they're DocBook files (judging by the icon it uses), but doesn't seem to know what to view them with. A Google search turned up a posting that suggested that yelp knows how to view them, but when I load them with yelp it just shows me the raw SGML, just as gedit does. I see that the docbook-utils package includes docbook2ps. Sounds promising. I read the man page on docbook2ps, and it indicates that there should also be a docbook2pdf, but that doesn't appear to actually be in the package. It goes on to say that it is just a wrapper for jw. So I try "jw -b pdf usb.tmpl", and out pops a usb.tex file. Hmmm. Next I try "docbook2ps usb.tmpl", thinking that I will be able to run the Postscript output through ps2pdf. But out pops a usb.tex file again. No error message or warning about anything being missing. I do have tetex, tetex-dvips, tetex-latex, tetex-fonts, and jadetex installed; is there something else jw needs to finish the process? Surely there must be an easier way? Thanks for any advice! Eric
