Hi Kartik,

Here's the output:

$ dpkg -l | grep chm

   ii  kchmviewer   3.1-1        CHM viewer for KDE
   ii  libchm-bin   2:0.39-5     Transition package for
   ii  libchm-dev   2:0.39-5     library for dealing with
   ii  libchm1      2:0.39-5     library for dealing with
   rc  libktnef1    4:3.5.7-4    Library for handling KTNEF
   ii  xchm         2:1.13-6     Compiled HTML Help (CHM)

I just stumbled across something.

I was updating my system as root in an xterm.  Absent mindedly, I opened
xchm from that terminal, and it worked.  I was able to view the chm (not the
source code).

Went back to a different xterm (my usual user) and I still could only see
the html source in xchm.

So as root I could view the book, while as my normal user, I could only see
the html source.

First thing I did was to move ~/.xchm to ~/dot-xchm.  Didn't help.

Next thing I did was to see if it worked for my girlfriend's account on this
machine.  It did.

So the only account on this machine that xchm works for is my main user
account.  This is the only account on the machine that has *ever* used xchm
in the past.  I wouldn't normally use xchm as root, and my girlfriend
doesn't even know what a chm file is.

Yet I removed ~/.xchm.  I'm at a loss.   Any ideas?

Thanks!
Pete
