Hi,

I don't really understand your message. Try to keep your emails to a minimal.

Gimp crashes when you are loading an image, is that correct ? Can you offer that image for download on internet so we can try ?
If you are concerned about gimp version number, send a different email asking for version number increase : p
Thanks,
Germain

Subject: [Gimp-user] Oh man, i am very sad, that GIMP very often crash


Hi the GIMP developer,

I am very like GIMP for linux, and i am very often using GIMP to edit
and retouch my picture collections. For example, after retouch the
picture and save into file.xcf ( more than 80Mb) and next time i try to
open it, and opening big file sometime crash, or sometime to edit
someting also crash. now very often i use GIMP always crash (sometime
hang, sometime not enough memmory to open 2 large file and etc. ) I am
very sad about this one. Today i try to report this whislist, but some
people also already post like my wishlist. 
I use GIMP 2.3.18 compile from souce, and hope the next release after
GIMP 2.4 is launching, the GIMP can move into new GIMP with GEGL or
other feature so the memory usage of GIMP can fix and very often crash
also fix. and GIMP should become version 3. and need some big
enhancement. I use GIMP since GIMP 1.2.3, now after more than 5-6 years,
gimp still in version 2.3.x (development) or 2.4 (next release). hope
the developer can increase the productivity of the GIMP.
I know, i am not advance in programming, so i can help the development
of the GIMP. i only can to post some wishlist. And i am sorry about it. 

Thank you, and sorry my bad english.

Regards,

Teddy Widhi Laksono

I'm using 2.3.18 (and i was using the development version since 2.3.9 ) and the only time gimp crashed was when i had 256MB ram and tried to manipulate huge (a 80MB xcf file is quite huge) images. However this isn't as much a gimp problem as hadware one.

Also consider that the 2.3 series are in development branch which brings new features but less bug fixes. Try using the stable 2.2 version if you esteem that gimp hangs up too often.

However this isn't as much a gimp problem as hadware one.

It is possible that the software cannot handle a specific input because of hardware limitation, but the opening phase should fail gracefully, as opposed to the whole software crashing.

I get windows disappearing sometimes (main, layers) but no crashes. No pattern either.

GIMP is actually very stable. There are almost no open bug reports about crashes as we are taking such reports very seriously. If GIMP crashes for you, make sure you are using the latest version. If it still crashes, try to get a stack trace and file a bug report.

There is a feature that hides windows when hitting the tab key. Hitting the tab key again should bring the windows up again.

So if you can continue to use the gimp in the image window you most probably have hit the tab key by accident.

2.2 switches between three states, 2.3 between two states.

Hope this helps, Simon

It does help. Thanks.
Now, on to the compile issues with 2.3.18. I'm still on .16.
