Bug Description

Binary package hint: evince

Using Karmic release candidate with latest updates as of Oct.26 at noon.

Using either the previous or next arrows, or the thumbnail navigation on the left yields outputs the same behavior; When trying to change pages in the document viewer sometimes it takes clicking several times to either previous or next pages, or anything in the thumbnail browser in order to get the document viewer to display a different page.

Here I just made a short video clip of the bug in action for you. I just opened up a pdf and tried successfully switching pages.

Anything I try to view in the Document viewer yields the same result; if I try to view .cbz files with evince the same behavior occurs, whereas Comix will have no issue

I attached a video of the bug in action, and as for that pdf it was just a datasheet for a texas instruments package that I needed for an engineering project that I no longer have, but for me the problem has been with anything viewed using the document viewer. I can't provide any better evidence beyond the video showing evince refusing to display the pages i navigate to, so sorry if I can't be of more use as of this moment. I will save pdfs that I notice the issue on in the future so that I may upload them to you however.
