Hi,

So, it only fails if I try to call kdvi from command line as
$ kdvi myfile.dvi

Any ideas about what might be wrong?



Not really, but it looks like it can't find the fonts.


What happens if you start kdvi, set "Settings-show all errors and warnings" and then open the document? Perhaps it will show errors that might help.

Also, see if the option "Generate missing fonts" in the options dialogue is set.

Cheers

Same thing happens, and no error messages are displayed. Also, if instead of using command line I open kdvi from the KDE start menu --> graphics --> KDVI, it works. What it seems is that it only works from inside some GUI.

When I click help -> kdvi the window that appears has the title "About the kdvi plugin", which seems to hint that it should only be "a plugin" to something else, and not a standalone. However, it used to work standalone for me in RH8!

By the way, I agree that, for some reason, it doesn't seem to find the fonts.
