Gimp half starts from terminal but not via link in applications menu or from UFRaw using Ubuntu 10.10
Hi, I am totally new Linux and have just migrated from Windows.
I am unable to get Gimp2.6.10 to start at all either via the link in the Applications menu or directly from UFRaw. I get the starting gimp editor icon up and then it disappears without the program starting
If I type gimp into terminal, the following script and gimp 2.2. main menu panel and tip of the day appears:
/usr/local/
(gimp:3026): LibGimpBase-WARNING **: gimp: wire_read(): error
/usr/local/
(gimp:3026): LibGimpBase-WARNING **: gimp: wire_read(): error
I can then open and edit files.
I have tried this:
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get remove gimp
sudo apt-get remove ufraw
and the installed through the software centre, but the same symptoms exist.
Any help please?
Thank-you
Ivor
