Re: [newbie] gimp plugins and gimptool
Hi All, I found the built in bumpmap function of Gimp but I'm still wondering about the gimptool application. Is it included in the 2.0 version? tia, Bill W.

I too have them together. I have only one prob to date: Might be me not configuring enough though.

I didn't follow the whole thread about Gimp 2.0, but can it be installed on mdk 9.1 as well or will it become a dependency nightmare? Your reactions here on the new Gimp are very promising!! Well, as you can see from the FTP path, they are built against 9.2, so you would *very likely* run into dependency probs, esp. more up to date libs. 'Course, you could always do a 'urpmi --auto-select' first, and upgrade your distro to *almost* the level of 9.2. Your best bet is to do as above (upgrade to all the latest libs, esp devel libs), then build from source. Might be a bit of a pain, but I'm more than willing to help you track down all the bits and bobs. Warning: 'urpmi --auto-select' can take a lng time, as what it does is update almost every package on your system. -- JoeHill ++ ICQ # 280779813 Registered Linux user #282046 Homepage: www.orderinchaos.org +++ The more laws and order are made prominent, the more thieves and robbers there will be.-- Lao Tsu Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

Re: [newbie] Gimp
John, it's actually quite simple to reduce red eys with gimp. Took me a while to work it out too... but eventually I found a page explaining how to do it. Firstly, open the photo in Gimp. Make sure you have the Layers screen open. On the Layers screen, you will see Channels tab. Click that tab, and you will see 3 highlighted things (Red, Green and Blue). Click both the Green and Blue over the picture (not on the eye_looking_icon on the left), so that only the Red is selected. Great, now go to your picture with the red-eyes (probably from a hangover hehehe) and with the airbrush and the colour black, spray over the red eyes. There, now you don't have to use shareware to fix hangovers! Oh, and for future reference, ask people to close their eyes when you take a pic... it'll save you a lot of work :-) Greetings Ralph -- Homepage: http://tuxpower.f2g.net/ Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

Re: [newbie] Gimp
To use Compupic to remove red eye: 1. Open the file containing the red eye in the Image Viewer. 2. Activate the red eye reduction tool by selecting Reduce Red-eye from the Image menu. 3. Click on the red eye. The red eye will immediately be reduced. 4. Continue to click on the areas containing red eye until the level of reduction you desire is reached. 5. To make more precise changes, hold down Ctrl while clicking on the red eye. 6. Once you have removed the red eye, you are ready to save your changes. Note: You may need to click different parts of the red eye to remove all the redness.

First of all my Gimp opens just fine now. It seemed to resolve itself. Thank you all for your help. To get my HP 4300c to work: I got the testtool which contains the patch script for the sane-backend from http://sourceforge.net/projects/hp3300backend/. On this page you can find the forum which provided most of the help for me. Here is my account of how I got my HP 4300c usb scanner to work. To patch SANE do the following: 1) Download and unpack the testtool and sane-backends source packages 2) Copy to usr/local/src 2) install libusb: http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/libusb/libusb-0.1.5.tar.gz usb.h comes from libusb0.1.5, make sure you uninstalled libusb0.1.4 with no deps. Then do any make uninstall of libusb0.15, and the ./configure , make, su to root and make install. YOU WILL need to run ./configure | make | make install again on sane-backends-1.0.8 AFTER reinstalling libusb-0.1.5 ! 3) Unpacking the testtool package is done by: tar -xzvf testtool-20020816_1.tar.gz which creates a directory 'testtool' with some files in it, including the readme. Run make in the testtool directory. 4) Go to the testtool directory and patch sane-backends: ./patch-sane.sh ~/sane-backend-1.0.8 the patch script should be run with the path to the sane-backends sources as an argument. In my case it was: ./patch-sane.sh /usr/local/src/sane-backends-1.0.8 (substitute the proper sane-backend directory) 5) Go to the sane-backend directory and build sane-backends: ./configure make make install It is suggested to first try the testtool before trying to make SANE work. In addition to the directions above, I copied some of the niash specific binaries to a directory belonging to an already installed sane rpm. Then I added niash to the dll.conf file and ran ldconfig. This way I did not have to uninstall the sane that was already setup. Here are the steps for this below: 1) copied backend/.libs/libsane-niash.so.1.0.8 to /usr/lib/sane 2) made some symlinks in /usr/lib/sane named libsane-niash.so.1 and libsane-niash.so pointing to the file just copied. 3) added niash to /etc/sane.d/dll.conf 4) ran ldconfig 5) changed /dev/usbscanner in niash.conf to /dev/usb/scanner0- if your device is a different name then you would use that name instead of /dev/usb/scanner0. I hope this is complete. There is alot of help from sourceforge and other instructions if you want to install another method. The author of testtool promptly answered my questions in the forum. This testtool also works for HP 3300c, HP 3400c, and the Agfa Touch. The one problem I am still having is my image is stretched which the author told me is supposed to be fixed so I am waiting for an answer about this right now. If anyone gets their HP scanner running and does not have a stretched image please let me know. Otherwise I am very pleased to have it working so well.

I can let you have the specific configuration details if you need them. But pretty much all I did to set up my scanner was install the sane-backends and libraries rpms and the xsane-gimp rpm.

Kooka looks interesting, with lots of options like scan to OCR. I could get the preview but then couldn't find how to get the scan proper.

Re: [newbie] Gimp 1.1.24 v Photo shop

RE: [newbie] Gimp 1.1.24 v Photo shop
photoshop has a pretty steep learning curve. Granted I haven't seen/used the version of the gimp that you refer to (I've been using 1.0.4). The details of how the programs work are very different. You can definately pick up photoshop but I don't know how helpful knowledge of the Gimp will actually be. Be careful! Photoshop is an incredible program. Your gonna want a copy and then you'll have to have windows or MacOS (u) to run it on. That wasn't very helpful was it. Abe = Original Message From [EMAIL PROTECTED] = Hi all, Just got the latest version of the Gimp. WOW!!! As I do a bit of Web design the web functions are really good, especially image map function etc. However my main reason for e-mailing the group is this. How does this new gimp compare with the Abode Photo Shop from which I believe it was based (the interfaces appear almost identical). Could a user of Gimp find Photo Shop easy to learn and use. I ask this as I have been asked by an employment agency to go for an interview with a web design company later this week or early next and they have asked that I can use Photoshop. Obviously I will tell them I use Linuxso no but..etc. Andy Jesus saves, Allah forgives, Chthulu thinks you'd make a nice sandwich.
Re: [newbie] Gimp v Paint Shop Pro
Could anyone tell me if Gimp is an equal to Paint Shop Pro or Photo Shop for Windows. I have used GIMP just for fun and I love it! Friends of mine who use it to create graphics and edit pictures for web design all say that GIMP is actually better than Photoshop and Paint Shop Pro. If you know a little about programming GIMP is great coz you can add stuff immediately rather than wait for Photoshop to release filters and available add-ons. Most of my friends find this freedom very happy and productive. =) There must be even a mailing list for web designers and graphic artists who use Linux for their creative needs. =) -John
