I firgot to add that I found it necessary to get rid of the default
org-file-apps for pdf files, which I think is (was?) docview. So I use:
#+begin_src elsp
(add-hook 'org-mode-hook
(lambda ()
(delete '("\\.pdf\\'" . default) org-file-apps)
(add-to-list 'org-file-apps '("\\.pdf\\'" . "xpdf %s"))))
#+end_src
I don't like evince, sorry.
Best wishes,
Colin.
