Ok, that actually sounds familar now that you mention it. I'll add that 
bit of (weird) information... it's probably some latex-thing.

I have the same problem, guess I should add this info as well. My 
workaround has been to view postscript just as you have. In my case I just 
get the coloured background and nothing else. Maybe the text is printed in 
the wrong layer or something?

This must be a pure latex-thing, since even with sampleTex.tex -> 
sampleTex.dvi produces the same result.
