I have installled Acrobat4 and I obtain the next bug when I open any pdf
file: (I have tried several of them)

The first page of the pdf file is displayed (with a lot of gargabe in
the text of the page), and inmediatly appears
a window of the acrobat program with next message:

There was an error processing a page.
Segmentation Violation Caught



I have also tried the Acrobat3 release. I obtain a diferent bug:
/usr/pkg/Acrobat3/Reader/intellinux/bin/acroread: 1 Syntax error: word
unexepected (expecting ")")

It seems that NetBSD that doesn't recongize it as a binary file

The NetBSD Release is 1.5.2 on i386 arch.
The Windows Manager is twm
The Kernel is the GENERIC Laptop

The Acrobat was installed from the package system (I downloaded
pkgsrc.tar.gz the 20 Oct):
cd /usr/pkgsrc/print/acroread; make install
cd /usr/pkgsrc/print/acroread3; make install


If I have understanded well, the GENERIC Laptop kernel of the 1.5.2
release includes the Linux emulation
(COMPAT_LINUX, EXEC_ELF32), and it isn't needed to recompile the kernel
as the 1.4.x releases.

I have tried to execute the bash shell of linux and it works ok:
/emul/linux/bin/bash. It appears the linux
emulation is compiled in the kernel.
