I can't draw anything in the gimp. Lines don't show up, using the pencil, brush, or other drawing tools. The spline tool does lines, but when I switch over to pencil or brush, etc., the lines disappear. I get some messages, including
** WARNING **: XGetWindowProperty failed This message I got the first time I tried to start up gimp on this session.

I had started emacs between the two invocations of the Gimp. I reinstalled gimp 0.99.14-1 and the gimp-data-extra, gimp-data-min, and gimp-non-free packages of this version. I also installed the up-to-date libgtk1. I am using x11 3.3.1 with a matrox millenium. I have been having some freaky problems with the SVGA server, streaks and lines dancing on the screen. I am now wondering if there is a problem with my X11 installation. Alot of the x11 problems seemed to happen after the first time I started up uxing xdm. The character of the screen is way different (not just colors) when I start up with xdm. Thought these might be related? I am sending to the users list, even thought I am using a pretty nearly completely hamm system. Alan Davis -- "I consider that the golden rule requires Alan E.
