After loading of documents in evince , or resizing them (ie. zooming) sometimes my computer roboots. Previously i used evince 0.5 with same poppler version, and reboots were much more often, after downgrading both reboots are not so often like before but still occur... I don't know what information i can provide but i will do whatever You want to know what is the reason for that behaviour. evince-0.4.0-r3 poppler-bindings-0.4.3-r2 poppler-0.4.3-r4 Portage 2.0.54 (default-linux/x86/2005.0, gcc-3.4.4, glibc-2.3.5-r2, 2.6.13-gent oo-r5 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.13-gentoo-r5 i686 Pentium III (Coppermine) Gentoo Base System version 1.6.14 ccache version 2.3 [enabled] dev-lang/python: 2.4.2 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.12 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r6 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r1 sys-devel/binutils: 2.16.1 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.22 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.11-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" ACCEPT_LICENSE="" ANT_HOME="/usr/share/ant-core" ARCH="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" BASH_ENV="/etc/spork/is/not/valid/profile.env" CBUILD="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CCACHE_SIZE="5G" CFLAGS="-O2 -march=i686 -mmmx -msse -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CLASSPATH="."

This sound like a video driver problem. What version of X are you running? What video card do you have, and what drivers are you using for it (are you using proprietary or open source)?
xorg-x11-6.8.2-r6 video driver - xorg ati driver video card - ATI Rage 128 Pro Ultra TF I use it quite a long time and only problem is with evince.
Generally, system reboots and crashes are either a kernel or hardware problem, generally a user program like evince should not be able to reboot the system unless there is already something wrong with the configuration. Are you sure it is not a heat or driver issue?
I don't belive that, case is open, i use default drivers and reboots are in very different conditions in my opinion. The problem is that i can't find any relevant info, no kernel messeges, nothing in logs. If only i would know how i can found what the problem is... and the strange thing that it only happens with evince. Also i checked evince in kde environment (i normally use xfce) and result is the same, reboot on load, resize... If You have any suggestions how can i diagnose problem send me an info.
I've changed whole hardware, i would start to use evince one more time. If there would be no problems i will close bug as a INVALID one.
After 3 days of extensive evince usage and testing i agree, it had to be some hardware problem. Closing as invalid. In case of problems i would reopen it, but i don't thinks so it would be needed. Sorry guys for bothering...
