there was a slight typo:

yes sir the windows fix (a reinstall) fixed it (I run linux). in
reality gimp wasn't installed correctly. I had the flatpak version
installed. I reinstalled the apt version and everything was good after. the
flatpak version was installed from the ISO.
as for when told that my hdr method with gimp didn't work this is how you
do it:
pull the three exposures into gimp
open into layers (in this order) the dark exposure, medium, light
create grayscale layer mask On the dark layer then increase both the
brightness and contrast. Save as a tiff then open in darktable and play
with whitebalance and play with brightness (you might have to decrease it).

Aw: Re: [darktable-user] Darktable on xubunbu 22.04 / wayland / nvidia: Recommended or not?

2022-07-19 Thread Michael Staats
Hi

Thanks for this answer. In the meantime, I researched a bit, and found one information where it says: NVidia has asked Ubuntu to *not* use Wayland in 22.04 for NVidia cards. So probably, 22.04 + NVidia is still using X11.

You can find out by running

 


echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE


 

in a terminal. See also https://askubuntu.com/questions/904940/how-can-i-tell-if-i-am-running-wayland

 

So maybe your issues are not Wayland-related.

 

Anyway, I have decided to stay with 20.04 for some time. I mean, I'm not using a long term support version to change it every other day ;-) Ok, seriously, I was interested in Wayland, if it was stable and working fine, I wanted to give it a try (although I know X since X10, it would be a hard time to say good-bye).

But Wayland seems not to be usable today, so maybe I'll wait for 24.04.

 

Best regards,

 

 Michael

Now I get an idea, what the reason for my problems may be.

Because Ubuntu 20.04 on my mashine had some problems on startup, last
week I decided to do the LTS-upgrade earlier then 22.04.1 is released on
4th August.
I got DT 4.0 from PPA "unbuntuhandbook".
After upgrade to some new nvidia-drivers, the openCL-Support in DT was
fixed.

But one of my displays (EIZO) seemed to be out of calibration, it looks
a bit too green after the upgrade.

I found, that DisplayCAL (3.8.x) is not longer in the sources in 22.04
because of the dependencies to python 2, with is not longer supported.
But there is a new projekt "DisplayCAL-PY3" porting the code to python
3. It can be installed with "pip install DisplayCAL" which gives you a
version 3.9.6, still in progress but works.

The calibration of my new ASUS-display was done in half an hour. But the
calibration of my older EIZO (has run more then 8000 hours), takes 2
days with many attempts. Each run with other results, some lookes green,
some looked magenta, some had bad messages.
Sometimes even the hardware-defined RGB-start-point drifted from one
attempt to the next.

Each time the result was different, the colors seemed to be "unstable".
I worried, the last days of my diplay has come.

At least (after a dozen tries) I got a icc-profile that seems to work.

May this problems result from an unstable implementation of
colormanagement in wayland in Ubuntu 22.04?
Or should I begin to save some money for a new display?
Why does Ubuntu do an upgrade to a system without a stable colormanagement?

Hardware: NVidia GeForce GTX 1060 6GB, ASUS VA24E, EIZO FORIS FS2333,
XRite colormunki Smile.

It seems a fresh install of GIMP fixed the problem for Mike. Some of his
messages only came to me so you may have missed that it was resolved. Also
ARW files are sony and it was my error to believe they were Fuji.
Sledgehammers are some times good with Windows computers. Some linux or Mac

 Hi Mike,
  I presume you are the Mike I have communicated with before from
 Florida?

 If I want to work an image in GIMP and how I was planning on doing it.
 D Darktable I use the open feature in GIMP and being a RAW file it opens
 the image in DT. I do the necessary edits in DT and then just shutdown DT
 and the image is moved automatically across to GIMP as a 32 bit floating
 point file. I then edit the image in GIMP and export as normal. The other
 way I use the two programs together is to edit in DT first, export as a 16
 bit tiff and then open the 16 bit tiff in GIMP.  I appreciate that
 these may not be the solutions you are looking for but it works well for my
 needs.
