Created attachment 7171 [details] testcase: 1 tex file and 1 eps figure When trying to display a .dvi file with an embedded eps image both in xdvi and evince, the following errors are displayed: [xdvi] xdvik: read_from_gs: Connection reset by peer xdvi-xaw: Warning: Read_from_gs returned 0 bytes [evince] GPL Ghostscript 9.00: Initialization file gs_init.ps does not begin with an integer. fatal internal error -100 [3]+ Illegal instruction evince ~/current_science/notes/ti/ti_ss_notes.dvi Both are accompanied by segfaults: Jan 30 17:39:15 svibor kernel: gs[5831]: segfault at 4c4 ip 0839df34 sp bfcf75f0 error 4 in gs[8048000+572000] Jan 30 17:39:27 svibor kernel: gs[5839]: segfault at 4c4 ip 0839df34 sp bfcf4b10 error 4 in gs[8048000+572000] Jan 30 17:39:29 svibor kernel: gs[5840]: segfault at 4c4 ip 0839df34 sp bff23cb0 error 4 in gs[8048000+572000] The error with xdvi can be worked around, if one sets PS ANTIALISING. There is an existing ticket (22026) at https://bugs.archlinux.org (https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/22026#comment71558) System and program versions: Arch Linux ghostscript 9.00 xdvik 22.84.16 evince 2.32.0 I am attaching the testcase (ti.tar.bz2) Thanks.
My attempts to process the sample file with TeX failed with some error messages. I have to admit that I have zero experience with TeX, but that's what happens when a native application file is submitted. Please generate PS of PDF file that has problems on your system and attach it to the bug report if you choose to reopen this bug report. The original bug report claims that this problem is fixed in v. 9.01.
