Good to know. So far, I wrongly thought that Mint Live CD, for the
reason of being Ubuntu-based, would be devoid of GIMP.

Mike_tn, since you seem to be very knowledgeable about the content of
various Linux distros, by chance do you know whether Mandriva and
OpenSUSE nowadays hold the latest stable version of GIMP or not?

http://distrowatch.com/

Choose the distro you are interested in, 1/2 way down the page, the far left 
column shows the most recent version of a tracked package, (lots of packages 
are followed), the other columns show what version of the program shipped 
with which version of the distro

most major distrows provide fairly up to date versions of major programs via 
their package management systems. I am using GIMP 2.6.11 on opensuse 11.3.
It is also not terribly dificult to compile gimp from source.

see ya,

Thanks to both of you, N92 and Martin, for your replies.

If someone else knows some other Linux Distros endowed with a recent
GIMP release, please do not hesitate to tell me.

So long.

Two more pre-installed GIMP distros, One big, one small

First the big one, this is a very active distro:

Fedora 13 Spins has a Design Suite Live CD with these: 

# agave, for automatically generating color schemes.
# blender, for 3D modeling, animation, rendering and post-production
# The GIMP, a raster graphics editor
# Inkscape, a vector graphics editor
# shotwell for managing photographs
# scribus for professional-quality document layout
# xournal, a sketching and document annotation program for tablet PCs
# dia, for creating flowcharts and diagrams 
+more

download here:

http://spins.fedoraproject.org/design/#downloads


The other is distro is limping but has GIMP and Inkscape:
DreamLinux 3.5
download here:

http://www.dreamlinux.com.br/download.html

DreamLinux has a strong Macintosh look
Nice looking. Runs only on my older desktop from '06
The Fedora version looks  runs really nice on my new laptop.


Seems all versions have mouse issues for me. I need a fix to slow down the 
acceleration of a BlueTrack Microsoft Mice, both wired  wireless have the 
problem. I've been trying to find a fix in Fedora 13 Live CD, I am not 
installing it just yet if ever. That's why I came here. I wonder how Ultimate 
is with my mouse? Ubuntu LiveCD has fixes for mice speeds via the terminal. 
Can't seem to find such a simple method with other Live distros.

One More Distro!

Linux Mint 9 has GIMP in the Live CD

And happily it's a Ubuntu based so the too-speedy-mouse-fix via the terminal 
works in LiveCD too.  The GUI is not flexible enough with Blue Track Microsoft 
mice, just google for info on these Ubuntu terminal commands

sudo -s

root privileges are required

xinput --list --short

Gives device id list.
The next is my fix, so the values may vary for you:

xinput --set-prop insert your device name in quotes or id# Device Accel 
Constant Deceleration 3
xinput --set-prop insert your device name in quotes or id# Device Accel 
Adaptive Deceleration 5

YOU NEED A SANE MOUSE FOR THE GIMP !

Hi.

Among the major Linux distros available on Live CD, where can I find
the latest stable version of GIMP pre-installed? I have already tried
the most recent releases of both Ubuntu and Fedora, but to my great
surprise neither of them has got GIMP pre-installed.

Thanks in advance.
