Reading man pages

Mandriva 2009.1, Gnome 2.26.1. When previously running KDE as a desktop
I was able to read a manpage by entering "man:<name> in konqueror. Can't
do that in Nautilus however. I have no problems reading them via
terminal however I'd like to save them for later. I 'used' to also be
able to run "man <name> > name.ps and then run ps2pdf however that seems
to not work anymore either:

[chris@localhost ~]$ ps2pdf ps2pdf.ps ps2pdf.pdf
Error: /undefined in PS2PDF

GPL Ghostscript 8.64: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1

Yelp is installed however won't load man pages for some reason. Any
advice would be appreciated.
