It doesn't matter whether I start GIMP from the terminal or the Applications menu; it returns the same error. Thanks for the link, but doing that to the Applications menu didn't affect the result, either. -- Tom On Tuesday, July 22, 2003, at 06:56 PM, Alexander Hansen wrote: > You shouldn't need to chmod anything.
