Howdy,
I've installed GNU ghostview V 1.5 in our AFS cell. When
opening a file, ghostview opens a dialog box which offers
a kind of history mechanism, showing the content of
the last two directories. Ghostview seems to read in
*all* information about the files. This leads to the
following problem:
If the path shown in Ghostview includes /afs/...,
Ghostview tries to obtain information for all mounted
cells ... This results in an enormous slow down; work
is no longer possible. Once one have reached a directory
which is deep enough to not include /afs/... performance
is ok.
Does anyone have already solved this? I would appreciate
any help. (One idea is to make a directory, say /afs/cells
which includes all cell mount points.)
Thanks
-Peter
