After portupgrading my system, I'm having difficulties opening pdf files using acroread5 and xpdf as a normal user. I've tried using the applications as stand-alone apps, and I've tried opening pdf files in Mozilla and Opera --all with the same results: If I'm trying to open the pdf file as a normal user, I get the following message: "There was an error opening this document. A temporary file could not be opened." If I run acroread or xpdf as root, I can open the files fine. This occurs both with pdf files on the internet as well as a couple on my hard drive. My normal user owns the pdf files on my hard drive and has read permissions on them. I haven't changed the ownership or permissions regarding file system directories. Any ideas? Thanks, Andrew Gould
