hi all
I start my emacs(ver:21.3) now, but the help system is disabled! When I hit
C-h, it just delete a character like "backspace". I installed emacs at
/home/myname/emacs-21.3-installed, and manual pages were stored at
/home/myname/emacs-21.3-installed/man.How can I enable emacs's help system?
Thanks a lot!

Try f1 instead.

Tell us more about your machine/OS and how you configured and built
Emacs.

The value of the variable system-configuration and
system-configuration-options might be helpful here, so please show
them.
