On my CentOS 5.5 machine, evince is not working. I cannot open PDF files. I tried to kill to restart it, but I couldn't find its PID.
Here is what I get when I launch it from the terminal:
[huangchao@ising download]$ evince EMBS-98-1.pdf &
[3] 23605
[huangchao@ising download]$
** (evince:23605): WARNING **: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken
UPDATE: After su root, I used killall evince to terminate the evince-related processes, and now I can open PDF files from terminal under root, but I got the following messages (I still cannot open PDFs under my own account):
(evince:24395): GnomeUI-WARNING **: While connecting to session manager:

** (evince:24395): WARNING **: Service registration failed.

evinceas root when someone else has the only active graphical login (root doesn't have a GNOME session running, and that's what most of the messages are). Has the output when trying to runevincefrom the terminal as thy own user changed since killing the old instances? – Darael Jan 28 at 19:35
