What does
locate ctable
(typed in a terminal window) give you? I get (a whole load of stuff) and
.
.
.
/usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf-dist/doc/latex/easy/doc.dvi/doctable.dvi
/usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf-dist/source/latex/ctable
/usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf-dist/source/latex/ctable/ctable.dtx
/usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf-dist/source/latex/ctable/ctable.ins
.
.
.
Also does
texdoc ctable
give any results?
If either of these commands gives a result, then you *have* ctable. The reason
that pdflatex isn't finding it may relate to your tex search path (controlled by
the environment variable TEXINPUTS) --- but normally you should not need to set
this.
