Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ PSTricks | Very basic Error

I have installed pstricks on Ubuntu with TeX Live.

Can someone suggest a solution?

This document works for me, with TeX Live 2011. Perhaps you need an update of PSTricks, you could also consider to install TeX Live 2012 from tug.org instead of the older version from the Ubuntu repositories.

[psionman]

Thanks Stefan. I can't understand it because I have TeX Live 2012 and I downloaded pstricks this morning

[Stefan Kottwitz]

You could ass \listfiles to your preamble, and post the .log file here, as attachment to a post. Perhaps we can see the cause in that file.

[psionman]

Thanks Stefan

I have attached the log file as you requested

[localghost]

The file list in your log file indicates that the system still uses the old files from TeX Live 2009 (shipped with Ubuntu).

However you installed TeX Live 2012 on your operating system, it is not recognized.

Thanks Thorsten. I realize that now. I mistakenly installed PSTricks with synaptic and that downloaded some TeX Live 2009 files. I've now sorted that but will have to have another try with PSTricks.
