Re: [darktable-user] Windows or Linux?
I have to agree: I use Darktable and GIMP on Windows 10 and it runs very well, I tried to install it on my older computer (running Ubuntu) and it worked too, but not as smoothly. You probably need to be a Linux expert to set up a linux system to give you the same performance / results, and your hardware has a bigger impact than the system you use. Am Sa., 18.

Re: [darktable-user] Export width/height empty
Patrick Shanahan schrieb am 18.07.20 um 03:44: * Bernhard [07-17-20 19:29]: Hi, for some time now i have been wondering why the fields export height and width in the module image information are empty - for all my images. What should be displayed there and how can I activate it if necessary? (no mention of this in the manual https://darktable.gitlab.io/doc/en/image_information.html) Mine for master latest build available att on openSUSE Tumbleweed linux show "0" which indicates the maximum available. Hard to say what you are seeing as you fail to mention version or operating system. I know of no where else in dt to configure the export size, but if you have never designated a size, perhaps that may be the reason that non appears. But after 8+ years using dt, I cannot remember ever designating an export image size. Thanks for this. And sorry, you're right. I'm on Debian Buster and use darktable master 3.1.0+2465~g75f505a86 built on 2020-07-16 I also get a value of '0' with 3.0.2 on the same machine. I assumed to find the size set in the crop/rotate module there ... but perhaps wishful thinking. Selecting pictures I already exported doesn't make a difference from pictures never touched. -- regards Bernhard https://www.bilddateien.de darktable user mailing list to unsubscribe send a mail to darktable-user+unsubscr...@lists.darktable.org
Re: [darktable-user] Windows or Linux?
Defenitely Linux! I have compared both on the same pc. I first installed Linux on this new and fast pc, wondering how well LR would work under Virtual Box. Pretty good but not fast enough, and I compared it with DT. DT was blazing fast! Unbelievable and unprecendented Trump would call it ;). Because I than decided to install Windows on that same pc because I need the native speed of Windows and LR, I still decided to install DT too (I also have DT on an older Linux pc). DT on Windows was by far not as fast as on Linux. Op 18-07-2020 om 08:29 schreef I. Ivanov: Which platform (Windows or Linux) will give darktable work better on? Linux!!! I am using a 9 year old Dell XPS i7 gen 2 (sandy bridge) (8 cores total) - 8GB RAM and PopOS 20.04 that I upgraded to few weeks ago. And I prefer to use this machine compared to Dell Precision - Windows 10 Professional with 16 GB Ram - 8 cores i5 or i7 (not sure) - Gen 8 - 1.5 year old again 8 cores. I didn't buy the Windows - I have it from work and work on it daily (I don't use it for personal use except to try one program or another). The windows has even GPU Nvidia Quadro P1000 that Darktable utilizes but I see no significant improvement in performance. With all that windows has to offer on the hardware (I mean the Dell machine) I feel that the performance and experience did not match Linux. Because of my older configuration - I used Ubuntu 16.04 with Darktable 2.6.3 and this configuration (on the 9 year old machine) would happily compete with Windows 10 Professional (the new 1.5 year old computer) with Darktable 3.0.2 Now since my 9 year old machine is upgraded to Pop OS 20.04 - Darktable 3.0.2 still works great but in some modules (like denoise, retouch) I can feel the aging hardware. Even with this - the service that I received from the hardware (Dell XPS x2), Linux and Darktable are more than impressive. I don't know what the experience is to run Darktable on a brand new machine under Linux. Looking at youtube videos sometimes - majority of the presenters that run Linux appear to have better experience than my Windows 10 professional. By the way - they are not only running Darktable - at the same time they record the video for youtube. Hope you will find the best platform that serves your needs. I made my choice and it is Linux.
