Perhaps someone has an idea: I'm running Gentoo Linux so everything has been "emerged" into my system, including kghostview which is giving me the error message of the subject heading. It doesn't matter if I open test.pdf from Konqueror or if I type gv test.pdf at the command line. I get the same message. I searched google but ended more mystified than when I started. Any ideas? Thanks. -Arturo
