I get the same error (Fatal format file error; I'm stymied), but only if
I'm creating a dvi or ps. HTML seems to work fine. My jade installation
is the default one, as far as I know.

It's a crappy error message, if you ask me. I don't understand what it
doesn't like or how I can go about fixing it.

Has anyone had this problem and then managed to make it go away?
