Try downloading the Linux acrobat directly from Adobe and see if it does the same thing. Also, note if it consistently takes 80 seconds, or if it's only after a reboot.
A bug report probably won't do much good, since Adobe is a proprietary, binary only package. Basically that means SUSE can't really do anything about it even if there is something wrong. From the RPM description: --- However, there are security leaks and other bugs that cannot be fixed because the Adobe license forbids us to "modify the Software in any way." See http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/acrrdistribute.html ---
You may want to give kpdf a try, or contact Adobe.

Thanks.
Problem occurs only if I invoke Acrobat after reboot (i.e., "acroread", wait ~80 sec until it runs, Ctrl-C, again "acroread", then it pops up instantaneously).
It's the same thing if I reinstall the binary after downloading it from Adobe.
Nevertheless, I admit it's a *very* minor issue. Opensuse 10.1 is great - everything else seems very polished & things are running smoothly despite RC1 not being the final version!
How much fonts do you have installed? Is this a 64bit system? Ciao, Marcus
