Evince installed...doesn't load?
 

I installed Evince and fired it up but it saying loading, spins and then goes back to the desktop.

I just tied rebooting but still the same thing.

This is on a n810 using 2008 latest version...

Ideas?

Find out if it's giving an error:
Open a terminal and type 'evince' and hit enter.

See if it gives an error and post it here if you can't figure the solution out.

ok...will take a look again!

Sometimes if you (usually accidentally) run a program as root, it will mangle your permissions:

chown -R user.users /home/user/.config/

(I *think* that's the right command, it may be a lowercase -r).

Sorry, it's Greek to me...

Do I need to uninstall to reinstall but pick a different folder to install to?

If so, where would I direct it?

thanks

That post is saying that something you installed may have screwed up the permissions on a folder called /home/user/.config/. To see if that's the case, start the terminal, type:
