This is not a specific prosper question, but has to do with
the editor that you use to call ps2pdf. The editor needs to
make a link with acrobat, close the file before regenerating
it and open it again afterwards. On windows, winedt makes
such a link (dde link) with acrobat. For linux, I don't know.

Good luck,
