 |
|
When I want to open *.ps file I get following message from kghostview:
| Code: |
Unknown device: x11
Unrecoverable error: undefined in .uninstallpagedevice
Operand stack:
defaultdevice
Unknown device: x11
Unrecoverable error: undefined in .uninstallpagedevice
Operand stack:
defaultdevice
|
My config is:
| Code: |
-sDEVICE=x11 -dTextAlphaBits=4 -dGraphicsAlphaBits=2 -dMaxBitmap=10000000
|
The best part of it is that friend of mine has the same configuration and kghostview runs without any problems...
I have no idea what shall I do ...
//EDIT:
I also tried to open this file with: gv, ggv, evince, but in this programs file look like blank. |

did you try different .ps files? maybe the problem is the file?
do you have the same USE-flags as your friend?
please post the output of
| Code: | | emerge -av kghostview |

| Code: |
# emerge -pv kghostview
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
Calculating dependencies ... done!
[ebuild R ] kde-base/kghostview-3.5.9 USE="-arts -debug -kdeenablefinal -xinerama" 0 kB
Total: 1 package (1 reinstall), Size of downloads: 0 kB

The file is good. I converted to *.pdf and I can view it. But it doesn't solve problem. |

have you tried to remerge kghostview and its dependencies?
maybe revdep-rebuild solves your problem..

I've done revdeb-rebuild and nothing changes.
I installed other programs to read *.ps files like: gv, ggv, evince, but with this programs doesn't work too.
Maybe it is 'global' problem with system configuration? |

i searched a bit and now i think you should remerge ghostscript...

I re-compiled ghostscript source code and then installed it.
everything starts working fine.
My guess:
The ghostscript package was first installed when X11 was not installed
yet. Re-compile gives a chance for ghostscript to automatically
detect that X is available so to turn X11 device on. |
