So, here's _exactly_ what I do to make things reproducible: my example: \documentclass[12pt]{article} \begin{document} \begin{equation} y=\sqrt{x+\sqrt{\pi}} \end{equation} \end{document} 1.) move old version of preview.el and preview.elc in /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/auctex to "save" locations 2.) move preview.el from #382487 into /usr/share/emacs/site-lip/auctex 3.) adapt file permissions / root.root / 0644 4.) start emacs as root, load preview.el, say byte-compile and have a recent preview.elc (verified) 5.) start emacs with: emacs -Q -l auctex -l preview-latex 6.) load sample above (from now on referenced to as "test.tex") 7.) say "preview" "document" -> the equation shows. This is independent of the setting of preview image type (whether it is "png" or "dvipng" makes no difference with the new preview.el) 8.) activate pdf mode by clicking the apropriate check-box "Command" "TeXing Options" "PDF-mode" 9.) remove all previews and try to restart -> in vain, only the one-way-road signs will show. 10.) revert the PDF-mode setting and try again: everything works fine as expected, the previews show. So, I have one document, emacs is loading nothgin but preview-latex and auctex (no further customizations), however, in PDF-mode previewing does not work. The same procedure does work flawlessly on openSUSE 11.0, tested several times. This is definitively an issue with openSUSE 11.3, but I cannot tell to what this bug is related because I have no information but the logs from preview-latex. Hope this helps, thank you so much for looking into this, take care Dieter Jurzitza -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
