It's part of Gnome rather than evo. I'm not sure about Solaris9, but
under Solaris 10 using JDS you go to Preferences -> Desktop Preferences
-> File Associations, then select Documents -> Published Materials and
there is a PDF bit in there. Just point it to the correct executable.
I'm not sure if double clicking will work, but you'll be able to select
Acrobat in the list of available programs.
