To those who agreed to include xpdf3 alongside the New! Improved!
Slower! Gaudier! version 4, thank you!

That was a horrible 30 seconds.

The question isn't so much whether this fixes the xpdf problem, but
whether is breaks anything else.

Also, OP might consider contacting xpdf's author: Derek B. Noonburg[0].
He was very responsive on the one occasion I contacted him about
xpdf's performance[1].

Please also type `bt' and hit enter after run in gdb -- this will
instruct gdb to print whole stack trace which may show how you get
into the crash situation or at least help a little bit more.

xpdf crashes when going fullscreen

[Alessandro DE LAURENZIS]

Dear misc@ readers,

just noticed that xpdf receives a bus error as soon as the fullscreen mode is
activated.  A gdb trace follows, hoping it gives some hints:

GNU gdb 6.3
Copyright 2004 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
GDB is free software, covered by the GNU General Public License, and you are
welcome to change it and/or distribute copies of it under certain conditions.
Type "show copying" to see the conditions.
There is absolutely no warranty for GDB.  Type "show warranty" for details.
This GDB was configured as "amd64-unknown-openbsd6.0"...(no debugging symbols 
found)

(gdb) run
Starting program: /usr/local/bin/xpdf

Program received signal SIGBUS, Bus error.
0x1693d3cabc78 in XtWindowOfObject () from /usr/X11R6/lib/libXt.so.11.0

That is to be expected. Get the djvu files instead.

There is no way to /decently/ use big image pdf files like those, even

Intel doc paralyses both xpdf and kpdf at page 16

[Dave Feustel]

I'm running KDE 3.4.2 on OpenBSD 3.8

Doc: Intel(r)_VT_for_Direct_IO.pdf
from 
ftp://download.intel.com/technology/computing/vptech/Intel(r)_VT_for_Direct_IO.pdf

Possibly relevant error message:

/home/daf/Intel}Error: PDF version 1.6 -- xpdf supports version 1.5 (continuing 
anyway)

Both programs freeze and stop responding when I attempt to display page 16 of 
the doc.
Kill -9 seems to be the only way to exit.

xpdf is version 3.00p5

Works fine on OpenBSD 3.8, xpdf 3.00p7.

It takes about twenty seconds to display page 17, but 16 is ok.
