HI again;

  I removed evince and reinstalled thinking that the behavior might
improve if it knew that there was an org-server package already
installed.

  I get these warnings near the end of the install of evince:

Warning: Schema “org.gnome.system.locale” has path “/system/locale/”.
Paths starting with “/apps/”, “/desktop/” or “/system/” are
deprecated.
Warning: Schema “org.gnome.system.proxy” has path “/system/proxy/”.
Paths starting with “/apps/”, “/desktop/” or “/system/” are
deprecated.
Warning: Schema “org.gnome.system.proxy.http” has path
“/system/proxy/http/”.  Paths starting with “/apps/”, “/desktop/” or
“/system/” are deprecated.
Warning: Schema “org.gnome.system.proxy.https” has path
“/system/proxy/https/”.  Paths starting with “/apps/”, “/desktop/” or
“/system/” are deprecated.
Warning: Schema “org.gnome.system.proxy.ftp” has path
“/system/proxy/ftp/”.  Paths starting with “/apps/”, “/desktop/” or
“/system/” are deprecated.
Warning: Schema “org.gnome.system.proxy.socks” has path
“/system/proxy/socks/”.  Paths starting with “/apps/”, “/desktop/” or
“/system/” are deprecated.

Also when invoking evince, I still get the flashing between the black
screen and the postscript file display.

I also still get the following bus warning:
dbus[99099]: Dynamic session lookup supported but failed: launchd did
not provide a socket path, verify that
org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist is loaded!

Thanks,
Ken Wolcott
