Displaying a PostScript or PDF file depends both on having
|
||||||
|
GhostScript
|
||||||
|
(see
|
||||||
|
.IR gs (1))
|
||||||
|
installed and on the underlying operating system
|
||||||
|
providing a file descriptor device tree at
|
||||||
|
.BR /dev/fd .
|
||||||
|
.PP
|
||||||
|
Some FreeBSD installations
|
||||||
|
do not provide file descriptors greater than 2
|
||||||
|
in
|
||||||
|
.BR /dev/fd .
|
||||||
|
To fix this, add
|
||||||
|
.IP
|
||||||
|
.EX
|
||||||
|
/fdescfs /dev/fd fdescfs rw 0 0
|
||||||
|
.EE
|
||||||
|
.LP
|
||||||
|
to
|
||||||
|
.BR /etc/fstab ,
|
||||||
|
and then
|
||||||
|
.B mount
|
||||||
|
.BR /dev/fd .
|
||||||
|
(Adding the line to
|
||||||
|
.B fstab
|
||||||
|
ensures causes FreeBSD to mount the file system
|
||||||
|
automatically at boot time.)
