Public bug reported: Binary package hint: evince
Recently, presentation mode in evince has stopped working for me. Tried on a number of PDF files from http://xxx.lanl.gov/list/astro-ph/new a) clicking on View/Presentation just hangs evince, CPU is not high, but nothing happens the View menu continues to be visible, but evince becomes totally unresponsive. b) Pressing F5 results in a long delay and eventually a full screen window appears, but it is just shades of gray with no text visible. It is also unresponsive. In this case, the following error message appears in the shell window where I ran evince: (evince:15105): GLib-WARNING **: GError set over the top of a previous GError or uninitialized memory. This indicates a bug in someone's code. You must ensure an error is NULL before it's set. The overwriting error message was: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken. ** (evince:15105): WARNING **: Problem inhibiting the screensaver: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.
