The way view works is that it creates a latex document in
$HOME/.sage/temp/hostname/pid/sage_viewer_*
where hostname is the hostname of your computer. You
could type
sage: view(...)
then take a look in
$HOME/.sage/temp/hostname/pid/
and see what's there.
ALSO, you can type
view(debug=True)
and you'll get some info about what's going on. Maybe you're
trying to view an object and latex is failing to latex it? Could
you send the code that creates the object you want to view?
Or does the problem happen no matter what you try to view?
