Description of problem: On one of my computers, evince fails to display any PostScript file. (But it works on another computer with the same version of evince/poppler). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): evince-0.6.0-6.fc6 poppler-0.5.4-5.fc6 How reproducible: Always on my laptop (Dell Latitude D820). Never on a desktop (Dell Optiplex). Steps to Reproduce: 1. Get a PostScript file. 2. Try to view it with evince. 3. Actual results: evince displays `Loading' with no visible progress for a long time (little CPU activity). Expected results: evince displays the PostScript file. Additional info: I will attach a very small PostScript file with the problem and the result of strace, which ends fairly quickly with something like ``Process 25298 detached'' while evince continues displaying ``Loading''.

P.S. I haven't tried with Fedora 7 but I should install it fairly soon and will update the status then.
I have upgraded to Fedora 8 and the bug has gone on my laptop.
