    Make sure to install the following from the IBM Linux Toolbox
    site:
    gnome-vfs2-2.4.0-1
    Gconf2-2.4.0.1-1
    All the other more recent rpm that I used seem to work OK.
    Not using the previous two cause a load problem with Acrobat.
    That is; Acrobat will not load. The problems seem to be with
    gconftool-2. No idea what the problem is. A work around
    is to do a ps -a to find the PID for gconftool-2 and
    kill the task. This will allow Acrobat to load. Not
    sure why; but once Acrobat loads it seems to work OK.
    I was able to view a document and print pages.

    Using the IBM rpm avoids the hang. Acrobat just
    come up.

    Of course the problem associate with using such an old
    version of Acrobat still exist.
