My .tex file failed the LaTeX compile with one of this problem, my OS is Ubuntu 12.04, and it seems to have the same problem in Fedora 16. Can someone help me with this?

Welcome to TeX.sx! A tip: You can use backticks ` to mark your inline code as I did in my edit. – Kurt Oct 17 '12 at 16:19
How dit you load the fonts? ptm is Adobe Times which is not shipped in any of the TeX installations. What is shipped is utm which is URW++ variant of Times. Normally updmap.cfg contains a setting which fonts should be used. Best is, show a minimal document! – norbert Oct 18 '12 at 12:32
