I sorted missed "completely freezes my laptop" the first time I read your post. Typically that means faulty hardware. At least most cases turned out to be that. Another possible reason could be memory usage, 4GB of RAM and running 64bit is highly recommended. Though this should not "freeze" your system. So I guess it all depends on what exactly happens. >> > Is there anything I could do to improve support and stability of the >> > SLT-A57 in Darktable? What things are missing?

Shouldn't take more than a few minutes. Do mind 1.1.2 is slated for release in a few days, so if you'd like to have these presets available in the release you need to hurry :) Regards, Pascal de Bruijn ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Master Visual Studio, SharePoint, SQL, ASP.NET, C# 2012, HTML5, CSS, MVC, Windows 8 Apps, JavaScript and much more.
