In Trusty (libgeis1 (2.2.16+13.10.20130919.4-0ubuntu2), libgrip0 (0.3.7+13.10.20130628-0ubuntu2)) the same behavior over x2go and xrdp (TigerVNC)
"evince -w $FILE" works but normal mode crashs with segfault: [ 4382.584653] evince[9291]: segfault at 0 ip 00007fcc9247fe10 sp 00007fff196e4bc8 error 4 in libgeis.so.1.3.0[7fcc92479000+24000] -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to evince in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/997630 Title: evince and eog broken on remote sessions (X, NX, x2go and VNC) Status in Open Input Framework Geis C API: Fix Released Status in “evince” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “geis” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “evince” source package in Precise: Invalid Status in “geis” source package in Precise: Fix Released Bug description: libgrip has some troubles when accessing a Ubuntu 12.04 desktop via x2go, which uses libnx-x11. The applications (evince and eog) start up very slowly. It takes about 50 seconds to open a 900k pdf document. The following output makes me think that the problem is libgrip- related. A way to avoid the issue is running evince in preview mode (-w). $ evince (evince:15833): GRIP-WARNING **: failed to determine device types (evince:15833): GRIP-WARNING **: Failed to initialize gesture manager.
