<0> Hello, im wondering how big an impact the MHz of a proccessor would have, like how big a difference would be between a 500 mhz, a 1 gig, and a 1.5?
<1> an impact on what?
<0> well on everything, but like would i still be able to use gimp effectively?
<0> or would it take an hour to do something that would otherwise take a second
<1> most applications are not cpu bounded, but rather io or memory access bounded.
<0> memory access would be ram right? what do you mean by io?
<0> please
<1> for gimp, having more memory is better than having an overclocked cpu
<1> io = disk access or network access
<0> dindinx: okay so does that related to my hard driver speed ?
<1> no, hard drives are slow, much much slower than ram. And when a software run out of ram, it uses harddrive swap and becomes awfully slow.
<0> dindinx: okay so io relates to ram too?
<1> yes, somewhat
<1> ram is the fastest io device out there.
<0> dindinx: okay thanks
<2> jbirdAngel: i/o means input/output



<3> Hello, can the gimp-svg plugin save a svg as layerd PSD?
<2> Jural: i would guess that it's not that plugin's job to save other file formats at all. so i'd guess it'd be just like any other document once it's loaded.
<3> Yeah unfortunatly I'm on a ubuntu box, and the svg import plugin is compatible with the version they have installed, have to grab headers, was hoping there would be another vector artist that may have had to convert the svg to psd for a client. Basically if it's worth the time I'm about to put into grabbing headers and compiling it myself
<3> compatible = incompatible sorry
<0> dtm: okay t hanks
<4> in gimp 2.3.10 on linux i don't see a Print option in the File menu
<4> even though i have gimp-print 4.2.7 installed
<1> pattern: the print option is there. Did you compile 2.3.10 yourself?
<4> i emerged it in gentoo
<1> stupid gentooists packagers...
<1> 2.3.10 is a development version, it is not meant to be packaged as a production package
<4> it's masked as a testing version on gentoo
<1> and these packagers should try to make some more clever dependencies between packages.
<1> pattern: report this to gentoo.
<4> ok, thanks, dindinx
<5> is there any linux software that can edit .PSD files
<2> lol.
<6> Hi
<6> I made a textfield, that I want to move a bit, which tool should I use then?
<7> Plain old rectangular select will do.
<6> That is cutting it
<2> granden: you need to undo until it's unrasterized, i guess
<2> if it's cutting, then the text has been rasterized (no longer recognized as being text, but as a picture of text)
<2> right?
<6> I dunno
<6> Now it works to move
<6> But if I move it then it seems like its coming behind another layer.
<6> Can I turn on so I can see all layers some where?
<2> go to the dialogs menu i think
<6> Hmm
<6> It is on top
<7> Selected text goes on its own layer--sounds like you didn't flatten it, though.
<6> How would I do that?
<7> Make the other layers invisible.
<6> Done
<7> Then the text is all there is and you can move it around, right?
<6> I can move it, but if I move it more then a few pixels it gets invisible
<7> I think I'm wrong about selected text--it seems to be something extra, not necessarily on its own layer.
<6> When I select the text, the mark of the text-layer gets white.
<6> But I cant still not move it
<7> I'm moving text just fine with the arrow keys here.
<7> To reproduce your problem, I'd probably need your layers.
<6> arrow key ok
<7> Same thing as the mouse.
<6> Ok
<6> How should I save the file so you get the layers etc
<7> XCF
<7> I'm not in a DCC mood tonight, though.
<7> Or any night.
<6> Ardonik: You can get it through my webserver
<6> http://gcrl.info/text.xcf
<6> With the keys after its newlly created it works great
<7> Just opened it.
<7> What exactly is the problem with rectangular select now?
<7> It works fine for me.
<6> Hmm it doesn't for me
<6> If I select it, the text layer get marks as white right?
<6> the borders are yellow first
<7> I can drag with the mouse using the Move tool (M)
<7> Yes, I'm seeing a white selection for the text as well.



<7> Nothing appears to be amiss. I'm having no problems moving the text.
<6> Ah, when using the Move tool it works great :)
<6> I thought it was just to select, then start to move
<6> not any extra tool
<7> Oh.
<6> thank you
<7> No problem
<8> i downloaded GIMP for windows, after i install all package, when i start the gimp it showed installation incomplete, image-menu.xml not found
<8> and i reinstall the package but same
<7> Where'd you download it from?
<8> http://www.gimp.org/windows/
<7> That's the spot. I've never hard problems with win32 gimp before.
<8> how to overcome this?
<8> i checked the file image-menu.xml, it did exist in the correct folder dont know why
<7> Finding image-menu.xml independently, I suppose. I have never encountered your error before, or had any other problems installing gimp on Windows.
<8> aha! the installer make mistake
<8> the program pointing to a wrong directory i think
<8> bingo! i menually copy the file back to the corect directory which the gimp is pointing to. and now it work
<8> this is installer bug
<7> I installed on Windows last perhaps a couple of months ago, and I didn't see that.
<7> Perhaps it is new.
<7> If it's highly reproducible, you should file a bug report.
<8> ok
<7> http://bugzilla.gnome.org/buglist.cgi?product=GIMP&bug_status=NEW&bug_status=***IGNED&bug_status=REOPENED
<7> I don't see any open bugs that look like that.
<7> But make sure it's reproducible before you file.
<8> hmmm
<8> i have no idea
<8> but i m downbloaded from that site
<8> maybe u should try it as well?
<7> I'm not on Windows at the moment.
<7> Though I am running the GIMP.
<8> ok
<8> if you done it let me know
<8> thank
<7> No problem
<9> Hi all
<10> hi Fred^
<11> hi, Fred^
<12> hello
<12> which file formats can handle layers?
<12> png, can't
<10> xcf can :)
<12> thank you :)
<2> linpp: xcf is the only raster format you need!
<12> okay
<12> because i'm a bit into stencils stuff
<12> so, sometimes, i have to open them again so i could edit them :]
<10> wouldn't you rather use vector graphics for stencils? just my thought...
<12> yea, vector graphics (inkscape) for making them, but gimp for making them from a pic :)
<13> is there an erase tool in gimp?
<13> I can't seem to see it
<14> it looks like a rubber eraser
<14> the icon, I mean
<1> lesshaste: http://docs.gimp.org/en/gimp-tool-eraser.html
<15> is there a gui for automatic handling of plugins for gimp?
<15> or is it necessary to re-compile the source every time we want to add one?
<13> dindinx, thx
<15> I'm interested to see if gimp has a convenient (GUI) way of adding plugins
<1> it hasn't, afaik
<15> damn
<15> any ideas of a graphics program that can do fourier transform filtering then?
<1> the way to add a plugin depends on the platform. Which OS do you use?
<1> and which plugin do you want to use?
<15> I use ubuntu (dapper drake)
<15> although I'm desperate enough to install gimp under wine
<15> if necessary
<1> then, many plugins can be installed with "apt-get install pluginname", or, if you only have the source for the plugin you want, gimptool will add it with a simple command line.
<15> gimptool?
<1> gimptool is a tool (!) which ease the installation of plugins
<15> I'm looking it up
<1> if you have the plugin source in the file "plugin.c", you just have to type gimptool --install plugin.c and it will be compiled and installed.
<1> you still haven't answered the most important question which could help me in helping you.
