Hi all, When I run texdoc I can read a page or so and then the system locks solid. Xdvi (which texdoc calls) has the same problem, as does Imagemagick which must call some common subroutine to xdvi. The only way I have found to avoid the problem is to unzip the tex dvi file and then read it with gv and, in the case of looking at pictures, to use what seems to be a deprecated program: xv.
Is there something I can look at, some Fine Manual I can Read, which will give me a clue? I suspect my video-card, an S3 Virge/GX2, may be implicated. Part of /var/log/XFree.0.log is below---let me know if I should include any other information. Thanks, Doug.
