That just means you don't have a version of the XSane plugin installed
that is appropriate for 2.6.x.
(this is easy to verify -- the plugin browser in the Help menu allows
you to search by name, and shows where in the menu something shows up.
searching 'sane' will probably bring up nothing)

Chris Mohler's suggestion is good. Personally I would recompile it
myself (I recompile all these types of things myself just so I can be
sure I know what I'm getting :)

Hi Francis,

 I am a computer teacher at a public high school in Sylmar, California, and a

 gimp-gap-2.4.0.tar.bz2 and gimp-help-2.4.2.tar.bz2 to my administrative 
 Windows XP computer; I uncompressed both these files. producing 
 GIMPAnimationPackage and GIMPHelp folders folders respectively.  Both of 
 these folders contain a file called install, but both talk about shell

 How do I install the animation package and the help files to Windows 
 computers?

First, you download the right files.
gimp-gap-2.4.0.tar.bz2 is almost certainly a source code distribution,
not binaries. Probably both of the files you downloaded are unsuitable
for your architecture.

For GIMP-GAP, you probably want the file linked to here:

[Gimp-user] Lost dialogues for clone tools

2009-04-19 Thread Simon Lowen
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA512

Dear all,

I decided to use Gimp for the first time yesterday as its Clone tool is
far superior to the one I used in Lightzone.  Great!

However, today I tried to do the same, but when I start the clone tool
the dialogue box in the panel is missing. This is the box that allows
the adjustments of the clone tool and the way it interacts with the
image. It had sat in the portion that says You can drop dockable
dialogs here, but I remember closing this area accidently.

I have tried to add new dialogues but cannot see the Clone tool one.

Can any one help?

Regards, S.

Just resize the toolbox, that will expose that area. Then you can drag 
any dockables to that area that you like. In your case, you want the 
Tool Options dockable.

Refer to http://docs.gimp.org/en/gimp-concepts-usage.html and the 
sections linked to.

I have found the box:

Gimp : File - Dialogs - Tool Options.

Now the box has appeared. One can add these to the other drag to
dockable window by dragging the box over into it.
