there have been very few changes to the tutorial/starter guide, so a
version created by you would be nearly identical to what is on the
website. When I talked about using tutorials as a starting point for
your experiments I was referring to the programs in the OpenSG/Tutorials
directory - They do not come with separate description, but at least
those with small numbers contain lots of comments.

This looks like the real problem, later latex can't find a file that
should be produced in this step and asks you for one.

This is a (in this case not so useful) prompt by latex which could not
find an input file.
You mentioned above that you use 1.8, since it is not released I guess
you use a cvs checkout ? How did you start the generation of the
documentation ? Can you look if the file OpenSG/Common/refmanToStarter
exists in your checkout ?
Thanks,
