I was going to say temporarily move your .recently-used.xbel file in
case it is trying to reload a broken PDF file, but if this is happening
with or without argument, that shouldn't be a problem.  The problem you
describe only happens to me when it is called without argument and tries
to load a broken PDF.

Was it fine with Karmic and then broke, or was it like this from the
first time you tried to run it?

One thing that might help diagnose this is to type

"script evince.out"

and then

"strace -tt evince"

Then, if "Force Quit" pops up do that, or go to "File -> Close".  Then
hit Control-D in the terminal window.  Then attach the output here.

For me evince's UI shows up in about a second, on a less powerful
machine.  With strace running, it takes about five seconds - and that is
on the strace delay.
