inkscape crash on raster effects

Asked by Gerhard

Newbie to Inkscape: Went through questions but do not see an identical problem.

Installed 0.46

On both my XP and Vista machine, I import a reasonable .jpg (say 4 MB plus) and then try to apply EFFECTS > RASTER > BLUR ( or in fact any of the other effects).

Either nothing happens or the thing hangs and eventually crashes with a report stating something like " Inkscape has encountered an internal problem and needs to close..." and then it goes through the usual windows error reporting sequence. There is no error code given.

Am I doing something stupid or am I the only one with this problem because it seems nobody else reports anything similar?
