problem with doc-view-mode in 24.1

[covici]

Hi.  I am having a couple of problems with doc-view in 24.1.  In 23.x,
when I find a .pdf, doc-view was automatically active, now I have to
type doc-view-mode to get it.  Any hook I can use to do this
automatically?

However, the worst problem is that I often get the following message
when trying to use doc-view-mode:
DocView: process pdf->txt changed status to killed.

Sometimes, I can get  things to work by restarting, but usually it does
not.

Any help would be appreciated.
