[mickey at localhost ~]$ which acroread
/usr/bin/acroread

[mickey at localhost ~]$ file /usr/bin/acroread

/usr/bin/acroread: symbolic link to `/opt/Adobe/Reader9/bin/acroread'

[mickey at localhost ~]$ file /opt/Adobe/Reader9/Reader/intellinux/bin/acroread

[mickey at localhost ~]$ rpm -qa | grep redhat-lsb

If I do a  /usr/bin/acroread  The Red Adobereader window flashes on then 
goes away fast.
