Thats a bit odd, this is an R14.0.6 install, but its not in either office
or graphics sections of the menu. Xpdf is there, but its yet to do a
print job anywhere near complete or correct. Reinstalled it, still can't
be found. Does run by cli. But whats all this?

I loaded up a 750 page linuxcnc documentation pdf, and while its all
there, it doesn't quite have the pretty print pizzazz that evince or
okular gives.
I am about to install stretch on this machine, from an image the LCNC
folks are testing, so hopefully wheezy will have reached the end of its
use here in the next couple weeks. And this time its a 64 bit install,
something I've been avoiding because of the much larger IRQ latencies of
a 64 bit install. But they've been fine tuning the preempt-rt kernel
builds and now have it good enough (pretty steady 50 u-sec lag) the
smarter interface cards can handle the remaining timeing wobblies. Their
default windowing system is xfce4, quite capable these days but I'll
likely do tde on it too just to get my old friend kmail.
You might think 50 u-secs is quick, but I have 2 machines here that can
respond to a scheduled IRQ with a worst case wobble in the 4 to 6 u-sec
range. Intel Atoms of course. Amd lost that fight years ago.
Cheers, Gene Heskett

Um, no. Note that your error messages above refer to kdeui and
kdelibs, not tdeui and tdelibs, even though these modules were renamed
in TDE.

Huh? I thought it was part of the kde fork? okular seems to run ok most of the time, but when
run from the
cli logs this:

This is my fav pdf reader, and I get 3 to 4 weeks uptime before
something goes to pot and I need to reboot this old wheezy
install.
Connected? IDK, maybe... I have a stretch testing image from
the LCNC folks that I put on an old Dell out in the garage as
the sacrificial goat, and its running quite well so far, so this
wheezy may get retired finally. Sometime in the next week or two
if the creek doesn't get too high. :)
okular is kde5/qt5, so it's a moving target. A quick search
suggests that this is a known bug (possibly two separate bugs),
it's been fixed, and you're running a very old version.
So, yeah, you might want to update to something a little more
modern. If not, then what am I supposed to be using?
The default TDE program for viewing PDFs is kpdf, in tdegraphics.
That doesn't mean you have to use it if it doesn't suit your needs, of
course.
