[A H. <A.H...@sm...>]

Hi, i just downloaded kile (im on ubuntu 7.10) and i cant get it to =20
work.  Everytime i try to preview i get the error message:

[ViewPDF] finished with exit status 127

ive tried going to configure kile and going through all the available =20
viewers but they all give me this message, it all complies ok and =20
DVItoPDF is ok too.  When i start kile i get a list of error messages =20
though:
