Thank you, Bill. Still not there yet, though:-)

I get

:~> which texexec
/usr/TeX/bin/i386-linux/texexec

and my bin path for TeX is

/usr/TeX/bin/i386-linux

It may be that TeXLive and Suse install TeX differently and the teTeX rpm 
package for Suse8.0 may do things the same way as you have it.

This is analogous to what I did but without changing the extension it seems 
that texexec gets ignored. If I remove the pl that's when I get the error 
message. Backing up to the old /usr/TeX/bin/i386-linux/texexec works, though.

This is frustrating; something so simple...

Best wishes
