Thank you very much for your advice, my problem is solved. The only
difference is that it seems that I dont have a /tex/ directory.

e7253:tex olichka$ kpsexpand
'$TEXMFLOCAL'/usr/local/texlive/2007/../texmf-local
e7253:tex olichka$ ls
latex		plain		pst-dbicons.sty

In my previous posts I had some questions about use of dbicons. I will
summarize them here:

1) entities positioning;

Relationship between entity 'tbl_std'  and entity 'tbl_lvl' is skewed (not
right angle). The same problem is with 'tbl_dsc' and 'tbl_indx'
I would like them to be positioned in the corners of imaginary rectangle.
Can anybody suggest how to achieve it?

2) associative entities;

In my model entities 'tbl_std' and 'tbl_indx' are associative entities
(used when we have many-to-many relationship). I would like to represent
them as a
diamond within rectangle.

Thank you in advance.

Kind regards,
Olga
