[Opera-Linux] Problem with PDF files

[Sven]

Hi,

I can confirm: Running ps -ef |grep acroread

generates:

user    8738  2992  2 19:48 ?        
00:00:05 /opt/Adobe/Reader9/Reader/intellinux/bin/acroread
user    8839  8836  3 19:51 ?        00:00:01 [acroread] <defunct>
root      8888  3275  0 19:52 pts/1    00:00:00 grep acroread

Hope this is of help for finding a solution

Thank's
Sven
