  1. Installed kubuntu on thursday
  2. Installed LaTeX on my kubuntu machine, using full
  3. Compiled an old document and it worked fine
  4. Downloaded a CV template from http://www.latextemplates.com/template/two-column-one-page-cv
  5. Compiled it, got error

    Fatal fontspec error: "cannot-use-pdftex"

    The fontspec package requires either XeTeX or LuaTeX to function.

    You must change your typesetting engine to, e.g., "xelatex" or "lualatex" instead of plain "latex" or "pdflatex".

    See the fontspec documentation for further information.

    For immediate help type H .

  6. Installed XeLaTex using this guide http://ledgersmb.org/faq/xelatex i.e.

7 Installed texlive-xetex that includes xelatex

apt-get install texlive-xetex

apt-get install liblatex-{driver,encode,table}-perl

apt-get install libtemplate-plugin-latex-per

8) Compiled CV template again, did not work.
