For 'latexmk -pvc', maybe you could create a $HOME/.latexmkrc file (if
you don't already have one)
$dvi_previewer = 'start xdvi -watchfile 1.5';
$ps_previewer = 'start gv --watch';
$pdf_previewer = 'start evince';
and use evince (or some other) dvi viewer rather than xdvi ('start
evince' instead of 'start xdvi -watchfile 1.5' above).
I guess even if you close the xdvi window, any subsequent saves in the
source file(s) might launch another instance (I don't have latexmk
installed so I can't experiment).
