In my case evince is to blame. It doesn't start: missing libpoppler-glib.so.2!
I couldn't emerge that libpoppler-glib.so.2 so I tried to point the 'document viewer' to an other application like kpdf or so. In vain!! Double click in Konqueror works because Konqueror uses kpdf, xpdf document viewer in this order. Why Evolution insist on using evince - I don't know. Maybe someone here knows and can give a hint? Regards Martin PS I don't know if 'documentviewer' is the right expression. I had to retranslate it from German Dokumentenbetrachter Am Mittwoch, den 04.06.2008, 12:14 -0400 schrieb Reid Thompson: > On Wed, 2008-06-04 at 09:57 -0400, Art Alexion wrote: > > Evo stopped giving me the option to open PDFs without first saving them. > > > > I must confess that I know much less about Gnome than KDE, and less > > about Suse and RPM than Ubuntu/Debian and DEB. > > > > Setup is: > > Distro = SLED 10.1 > > Gnome version = ? > > Evo version = 2.6.0 > > > > I could find nowhere in Evo to configure this, and have no idea where I > > might configure it globally for gnome.
