My formerly reliable RH 9 machine has suddenly developed several performance problems, GIMP having among the worst. 1) When I click on the Crop too, sometimes it crashes with this error: LibGimp-WARNING **: script-fu: wire_read: unexpected EOF Most times it works just fine. 2) However, these messages come up regularly while working, heaps and mounds of them: Gimp-CRITICAL **: file gimpdrawable.c: line 249 (gimp_drawable_gimage): assertion `GIMP_IS_DRAWABLE (drawable)' failed. Gtk-WARNING **: invalid cast from (NULL) pointer to `GtkObject' Gtk-CRITICAL **: file gtksignal.c: line 919 (gtk_signal_disconnect): assertion `object != NULL' failed. Gtk-CRITICAL **: file gtkentry.c: line 440 (gtk_entry_set_text): assertion `text != NULL' failed. 3) And then when I close GIMP, I get: Gimp-WARNING **: swap file not empty: "/home/jimc/.gimp-1.2/gimpswap.5159" 5439488 - 5505024 Is there something simple I can do with my current Gimp to repair what used to work just fine?
