[Opera-Linux] Problem with PDF files

[Daniel Eckl]

Hi!

After a while I could reproduce with opera 10 and Acrobat Reader 9.1

It doesn't happen when opening with application acroread, just when opening
it with the Adobe Reader Plugin.

You need to open a pdf file with the plugin and then close the tab. After
that you find a Zombie "[acroread] <defunct>" in your system and no other
(neither the same nor any other) pdf opens. Just blank tabs.

When starting opera with "-debugplugin" option I noticed these things:
1: When I first open the pdf, there is no output at console about loading or
executing anything. But the PDF is shown.
2: When I then close the tab and try to open the pdf file again, the blank
tab appears. No notice on console again.
3: Only with "debugplugin" Option: Now I cannot close this blank tab
anymore. Tho I can switch to other tabs and use them just fine and even I
can exit opera normally. No notice on Console as well.

So setting this to "open with application" might be a good workaround for
the time being.

Hope that gives anybody any clue.

Best,
Daniel
