Is there a PDF Viewer for Linux.  Adobe doesn't seem to support it
yet?

Ghostscript views PDF just fine (version 3.53 and up; current version
is at least 4.01).  This is what I use.

xpdf also works.

TTFN,

in the meantime adobe supports linux like the other operating systems
(perhaps while there exist tools like xpdf). the acrobat reader runs
fine on my machine.
