Sorry I took so long to do it.... I retry opening the test-file. I now get a error box which says that Evince cannot open the file because the format is not correct.
Here is what I get when I run a backtrace : [New Thread -1230480464 (LWP 13929)] (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) kpathsea: Running mktexpk --mfmode / --bdpi 600 --mag 1+0/600 --dpi 600 cmr10 mktexpk: Aucun fichier ou répertoire de ce type kpathsea: Appending font creation commands to missfont.log. page: Warning: font `cmr10' not found, trying metric files instead kpathsea: Running mkofm cmr10 mkofm: Aucun fichier ou répertoire de ce type kpathsea: Running mktextfm cmr10 mktextfm: Aucun fichier ou répertoire de ce type page: Error: could not load font `cmr10' Program received signal SIGINT, Interrupt.
