Problems with upgraded dvips and xdvi

Hi

I would appreciate any help at all on these two issues.  Our sysadmin
recently upgraded TeX to the most recent distribution, unfortunately
coinciding with the time I am trying to produce the final drafts of
my thesis.

1.  The new xdvi produces very grainy fonts on screen with bits of
several letters missing as though the page had been dusted with talcum
powder!  This was never a problem with the old xdvi.  I wonder what is
different.

2.  The new dvips file doesn't seem to generate the table of contents
for the ghostview previewer which the old version did without any
problems.  Even worse, when I laboriously select "Next Page" from the
"Page menu" some 40 times, and then try to magnify a portion of the
page in ghostview, it shows me a magnification of that portion on
the first page.  It doesn't seem to realise I am on page 40!

Many many thanks in advance for help in solving these problems.

Email replies please.
