I deleted the that file: /run/user/1000/dconf/user (owned as root) it was empty anyhow. |
| 51 |
Logout / Login and system recreated that file with my home user name. |
| 52 |
|
| 53 |
But I still can not open "ps" file with evince. I'm getting an error message: |
| 54 |
|
| 55 |
evince W-9\ Form.ps |
| 56 |
|
| 57 |
(evince:19345): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: 19:26:40.904: invalid cast from 'GtkFileChooserNative' to 'GtkWidget' |
| 58 |
|
| 59 |
Worth to note that I just upgraded my system. |
