Hi Steven,
I just checked, and evince, and mozplugger are already installed, and
the application/pdf section of
/etc/mozpluggerrc looks exactly like your example. What am I missing???
I found the reason is that evince can's open a pdf file if the file name is without pdf extension name. for example, the same file with two names " test.pdf" and "test"
evinve test.pdf OK
