First of all the system memory gets completely used up.
I saved an existing PNG image into TIFF format using Gimp and got a 3.4 MB image which opened fine in gqview. I have a 770 MHz Celeron with 128 MB SDRAM and on-board i810 video chipset running Red Hat Linux 9.0 and imlib-1.9.13-12. Maybe there is some gotcha with the TIFF images generated by your scanner. Try sending the smallest problematic image to imlib developers. -- Tahir Hashmi code_martial AT softhome.net http://www.codemartial.org I have seen The Source -- http://mm.ilug-bom.org.in/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
