Bug Description

The output of xdvi is almost unreadable for whatever .dvi file. Xdvi does not produce any error message.

 I am running Ubuntu 8.1., texlive-base-bin 2007.dfsg.2-3ubuntu1 on amd64. Probably I should include some output of xdvi -debug ... however I do not know what the best bitmask would be ..

I experience the same on Ubuntu Oneiric Ocelot since some recent updates.

xdvik version 22.84.16 (Xaw toolkit)
Libraries: kpathsea version 5.0.0, T1lib version 5.1.2

In contrast, evince does work.

The problem turned out to be a bad initialization in my personal ".xdvirc-"File, namely
xdvi.gamma: 0.084000

I did not know that such a file exists, because xdvi generates it automatically.
