[Opera-Linux] Problem with PDF files

[Daniel Eckl]

Hi!

Thanks for your feedback! The threads subject is shown... well... in the
subject ;)

To start a new thread, just write a fresh mail to the list :) And give it a
meaningful subject itself.

About the zombie thingie:
You need to reproduce the "blank tab" problem, then open a terminal window
and type (or copy and paste)

ps -ef |grep acroread

If the output contains a line showing:
[acroread] <defunct>
then you have successfully verified my findings and hopefully gave the devs
another clue by that.

Best,
Daniel
