After a delay of at least 10 seconds (sometimes much more), with no cpu load, it resumes. The pdf file is present and on local filestore. I ran strace and the hang coincides with read(7, 0x9e48540, 2048) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable) See below for more strace output. Next I tried dbus-launch: $ dbus-launch evince PIIS1097276509006418.pdf ** (evince:24621): WARNING **: Failed to create dbus proxy for org.gnome.SettingsDaemon: Could not get owner of name 'org.gnome.SettingsDaemon': no such name But I don't know what that means and if it is related. This has become such a pain, I use xpdf now.
