I also use this repository, but with yum and in FC3. However, people had 
said that this problem appears in other distros as well, so it may not 
be fedora-related.

By the way, when you mention it works for you, is it using kdvi from 
command line ?
$ kdvi myfile.dvi &

If I use the GUI to open kdvi, it works. The problem is that, 
frequently, I use it remotely by SSH, so something that works from 
command line is better for me.

Thanks
