Dear Tug users,
                         I am trying to insert png and jpg figures to my
latex file which is used with pdflatex which I  have pasted below.
But when I am running pdf latex I get the below error

[PDFLaTeX] figure_test.tex => figure_test.pdf (pdflatex)
/usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/oberdiek/epstopdf.sty:0: Graphics driver file
`pdftex.def' not loaded.
figure_test.tex:12:Overfull \hbox (859.5pt too wide) in paragraph
figure_test.tex:16: Float too large for page by 856.2882pt on input line 16.

I try to locate pdftex.def, it is located in
/usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/graphics/pdftex.def
which is there in latex path. thinking that access from there is a problem,
I copied this file to
/usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/oberdiek/pdftex.def
where the epstopdf.sty file is also located, But still the problem continues
the figure is not getting inserted. I am using latex under Red hat linux EL
4
 my pdflatex is beow version
[root at INCOIS-SJOIBM Misc]# pdflatex
This is pdfTeX, Version 3.14159-1.10b (Web2C 7.4.5)
**

Please help me if any one has an answer.
