I have not tried the current update again. I mainly used KPDF, sometimes Okular, PDFEdit to edit PDF's and sometimes KGhostView.
Now I have installed OpenSUSE 11.1 (KDE 3.5) where acroread 8.1.3 10/07/2008 is installed. I have not had any reason yet to use and test it. 'acroread' is the executable binary if you start it in a terminal, or the programme started by the desktop like KDE or Gnome.
