http://chakra-project.org – I installed Gimp 2.8 via the bundle manager and tried to start from the 'Installed Bundles' start-icon and also received the error messages. Then I started Gimp from the kickoff menu and Gimp starts.I have a fully updated system and I ran pacman -Syu prior to installing.Screenshot is as it installed, i.e NOT single window mode. Though I have not used version 2.8 very much my experience is Gimp in other KDE distros keeps the old familiar interface whether it is in single window mode or not, with the dockable dialogs already open. But as tetris4 said, it is simply a matter of starting (HowTos)

Stories similar to Gimp 2.8

The open source image editor known as GIMP doesn't need an introduction. Neither does its multi-window interface.

GIMP is a very powerful image editor, there's no denying that, but no matter how good it is feature-wise, some people simply don't like, or can't get used to the interface it sports.

I just installed the new GIMP.

we used to see Gimp with triple windows view with the last stable release of Gimp for tool box, editing window, and ” layers, patterns, channels, undo, brushes”. But Now with the development release it’s just single window mode for all three windows, and it’s fully customizable for dragging elements all over this window.

Gimp Won't Open! 2 years 40 weeks ago

That's basically all I know. I run a KDE desktop and have not recently upgraded. However, for some odd reason, Gimp just won't come up. I see the bouncy Gimp icon next to my cursor and I see a task manager icon at the bottom of my screen but after about 15 seconds, the icon leaves and nothing ever happens. I am a web designer and Gimp is a must have!

I am trying to install GIMP using the dpkg function in the terminal window. It looks like I am getting an error. Any ideas?

GIMP 2.6.9 is released. For newbies, GIMP is the GNU Image Manipulation Program. As you can infer from the name, GIMP is completely open source and is also free as in free beer. GIMP is pitched as the open source alternative for Adobe Photoshop. GIMP is cross platform and yes, GIMP has a Windows version also.
