I'm still not completely sure what happened. It may be reproducible but so far, I've yet to get the ability to view .bmp images back through image viewer so I'm not sure if I could make it do this again.
I am currently running Ubuntu 8.10, fully patched with all updates. As stated above, this happened after I highlighted a large number (30+) of .bmp images, I inadvertantly right clicked and released as my mouse buttons have a hair trigger. I think it chose the first option which is to open the images. That's all I know besides the fact that it will now not recognize .bmp image header data. I will include a screenshot of the error. As stated before, other image viewing programs such as the Gimp and F-Spot have not been effected. ** Attachment added: "image viewer.png" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/24459813/image%20viewer.png -- Image viewer will not read .bmp images https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/350040 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
