What does "not" mean? On my system:
! I can't find file `pst-fp'.
l.31 ...STFPloaded\endinput\else \input pst-fp
pst-fp.tex was installed to the wrong place:
$ locate pst-fp.tex
/usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf-dist/doc/generic/pstricks-add/pst-fp.tex
$ tlmgr show --list pstricks-add
Package: pstricks-add
Category: Package
ShortDesc: A collection of add-ons and bugfixes for PSTricks.

pstricks mailing list, together with some additional features for
pstricks, including: â bugfixes; â new options for pspicture
environment; â ellipses and parts of ellipses; â arrows; â
braces as node connection/linestyle; â arrows; â dashed/dotted
lines; and â CMYK colour support. The package also includes
additions and bugfixes for packages pst- plot and pst-node (each of

The workaround is to put pst-fp.tex in tex/generic/pstricks-add where
it belongs. This is
an all too easily made packaging error.
