Hi Peter,
   Thanks for getting back to me. I've now installed Acrobat5 as I
couldn't get acroread4 to even install.

However, now I find that acrobat 5 won't run:
# acroread
Warning: locale not supported by Xlib, locale set to C
Warning: X locale modifiers not supported, using default
Fatal System Error: Raise at top of Exception Stack
Abort (core dumped)
Demon# which acroread
/usr/local/bin/acroread
#=20

Don't quite know what to make of this. From earlier traffic with Martin
(below) I kinda suspect that something might be wrong with the
linux-compat on this system now. This, based on the fact that the strip
file was missing from /compat/linux/usr/bin? Is there a way to
re-install linux-compat on a live system?

Stacey
