seems the right candidate.
Under ubuntu 64bit 12.04 xpdf doesn't work, acroreader is still 9 32 bit
(so I use wine acroreader 11)
evince is ok, probably also okular.
A context pdf viewer should be like sumatrapdf at least ---  so  in the end
I also installed sumatrapdf.exe under linux .

Now that I have done a luatex binding for mupdf,
if we have a minimal GUI toolkit cross platform (but really minimal)
it's possible to build a pdfviewer in luatex
(ok  I think that it's quite slow).
