Description Brendan Rankin 2006-01-11 11:15:10 UTC
At least when compared to the old version of acroread, the new/"improved" 7.0.5 is nearly completely borked!

When I allowed it to start, it would literally take minutes to start (on my x86 laptop and on my amd64 workstation...), thrashing to the disk...refreshing the font cache, whatever it's doing is taking _way_ too long on startup!

In the meantime, I've gone back to the previous version on all of my machines.  7.0.5 is an abortion, from what I can see....  I'm running in KDE, if that makes a difference.

Cheers,

- Brendan
