Hi Gianluca,

I copied xdvi from an older distribution, but I get the same problem, i.e.,
the text appears but not the figures. So the problem may be somewhere else.
I searched the web and found that this is not an uncommon issue as it
occurred also in other distributions:

This suggests that ghostscript is your problem. Did you try copying
that from an old system and putting it somewhere in your $PATH before
the system ghostscript (on your updated system)?
If that doesn't help, I guess you are stuck with okular. As I think I
said, it seems as fast as xdvi on my system. If yours is noticeably
slower I wonder what strange things are happening on your system.
(Assuming you aren't using some very old, slow computer.)
No, okular is not slow on my system. I never implied that. I just think
that xdvi is generally more lightweight than okular, but okular runs well.
So okular is an option if I can't figure out ghostscript. What exactly
would I copy of ghostscript from the older system? In a OpenSUSE 13.2
installation I have for example:
/usr/lib64/ghostscript/9.15/X11.so
Would that be enough?
I also realized that my subject line should have read "OpenSUSE 15.2", not
15.3, but that may not be as relevant now.
Thanks,
Gianluca
Cheers.
Jim
