The good news: This problem seems to be solved with xpdf 3.01 (which is in etch, but not in sarge). After testing evince 0.4.0-1, kpdf 4:3.4.2-2 and gpdf 2.8.2-1.3 (all from testing/etch), I came to the conclusion, that there is at least one pdf viewer in Debian etch, which seems to work good enough (which means that I don't know of any other problem). Till DebConf-6 there might be even more pdf viewers ;) Oh, I heard, that you can create fancy transition effects in pdfs (even using latex-beamer and pdflatex), which didn't work with anything but acroread, too. I don't think that will be a problem, since: a) DebConf is not the typical "I impress my audience by fancy transition of my slides" conference b) The slides still work, but instead of your effect, you just see the new slide Comments?
