I have a Fedora 8 box with gnome graphical environment. I have installed a long time before kpdf and it worked properly, until I received some latest updates.
Now, when I try to open a pdf file with kpdf (right click open with), I get an error message " kpdf cannot open file .........".
I also tried to open a pdf from the pull down menu of kpdf (open file), but in filters there is not a type of pdf file. Nevertheless, when I clear all the file types from the filter and try to open a pdf, I receive the same error message.
The peculiar thing is that when I change the extension of a pdf file, e.g. paper.pdf to paper.PDF, kpdf opens the file. In addition, when I run kpdf as root it open all pdfs.
I would appreciate very much your help on this problem.
Thanks,
John
