The only difference is you are using pdftex and me pdfjadetex, the error
messages are very cryptic to understand too. Iam working on what David 
suggested. I have downloaded the Makefiles from cvsview.tldp.org but 
they need htmldoc from easysw.com which iam currently downloading. Will 
post the result soon :).
