"no respect for people that give them stuff for free"? "don't know what you're talking about"? for real? i meant no disrespect, i don't even use okular but i was trying to direct you to something that clearly bears closer examination. there are a myriad of other PDF readers out there we could be using but we're still here, reporting bugs/problems in okular. think long and hard about what that means with respect to the appreciation we show for the software you make. that being said, all of this is a moot point. it's taking up a lot more RAM than any other PDF reader (i'll leave you to decide whether that's appropriate). i'm sorry i can't help you out more, i know how to report a bug, but the diagnostics is beyond me (not an IT guy). thanks @Tobias for fleshing it out -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
