It's a problem entered because of the "last minute" upgrade before
burning the PLUTO CD (which has been copied by some magazines).
That version of man-db has been modifyed to work with the new pager
policy, but the CD still has the old more and less packages.

add

PAGER=/usr/bin/less; export PAGER

to /etc/profile
or 

set PAGER /usr/bin/less

to /etc/csh.login

If you don't have root access, you can do the same on your HOME dir
with files .profile and .login
