Yes, I've noticed that too. Hmm, this isn't just a typo or confusion between display/x11 -- gsx, for example, works. Yes, gsx works (or, whatever... gv, ggv, kghostview, they all work) Fedora Core 2 is now maintained by the Fedora Legacy project for security updates only. If this problem is a security issue, please reopen and reassign to the Fedora Legacy product. If it is not a security issue and hasn't been resolved in the current FC3 updates or in the FC4 test release, reopen and change the version to match. I don't think this is actually a bug. It's the documented behavior of gs, even though it surprises people. "export GS_DEVICE=x11" solves this problem Hmmm. Maybe it'd be reasonable to drop that into /etc/profile.d.... |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040510 Description of problem: When started from the command line, "gs" does not display a window as expected. "gs -sDEVICE=x11" works OK. In previous releases, "gs -h" reported the default output device as "x11", now it is "display", which is probably undefined. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): ghostscript-7.07-25 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start X server. 2. Start a terminal window. 2. Run "gs" from the command line. Actual Results: gs produces usual output in the window, no graphical output is displayed Expected Results: A graphical display window should appear Additional info:
