I have been beating my head against the freaking spaces in filenames thing
for ever now, but apparently, things still do not work well. I suggest that
instead of waiting for a comprehensive fix in latex-suite, you set

let g:Tex_CompileRule_dvi =3D "latex --src-specials
--interaction=3Dnonstopmode '$*'"
let g:Tex_CompileRule_pdf =3D "pdflatex --interaction=3Dnonstopmode '$*'"

in your ~/.vim/ftplugin/tex.vim.

I think this will most probably fix your problem.

It might be due to spaces in the filename again. This time use

let g:Tex_ViewRule_pdf =3D "acroread '$*.pdf'"

Let us know if these fixes work.

Thanks,
