Running version 5 of Acrobat, 7.1_2 of linux base.

Permissions are crw-rw-rw- with root and wheel owner and group respectively.

No, run acroread & from the command line, open a pdf file and I get:

There was an error opening this document. A temporary file could not be 
opened.

It was working before, I wonder what broke? Maybe I will make a force 
re-install see if that helps...
