photoworks

Here is another one. :D

I am in the process of doing other work So far , my first 2 attempts with inkscape resulted in this : and this :

yes, designer and photographer. discovered Inkscape recently and it is really good to ink and color drawings. B)

Not sure if it is the right place to post this message, but i give it a go. Took me a long time to make my tablet work and to familiarise myself with inkscape. However i think i have the hang of it now. Here is one of my few creation done entirely in Inkscape under Mandriva Spring 2007: What do you guys think. :mellow:

i am sorry, but from the time i had all the requirements done and i started to launch the process from ./configure , it took 2 hours for my machine to compile and install scribus from the source. HARDLY 1 minute.

amazing, i was able to compile scribus after having had to download 700 mb OF Development packages. it was a very strenuous experience. no wonder people stick to windows or mac. i wasted all my evening to install scribus and after that i too tired and p*&"£ed of to do something on it. Linux is defintely NOT READY for the common user, like all distros want to make us believe, it is still aimed to the fervent computer geek. i am again very much disapointed. like i said before, id rather spend my time using the DTP and graphic software raher than wasting time trying to install them.

i try to install qt-devel but it tells me taht :

all right, i finished installing the sdk packages and when i want to install qtlib, it tells me : i am stuck again, 602 mb downloaded and installed for nothing.

where is exactly that bloody information on what is wrong with with the installation ???

all right i have installed all development packages i can find. now when i run ./configure, here is what it tells me : and however when i tried to install the packages, it tells me that they are already installed, i.e : so i am at a loss again. i don't understant all that hassle to install just one software. help please. :wall: :wall:

i already have installed the devel packages suggested (qt3, cups, python, ghostscript ) which other one do i need to install then ? :unsure: :unsure: :unsure:

any help, please ??????????????

ok i tried it again by unpacking with Ark. Now i enter the following command : however, this is what is displayed : here is what it says in the config file : i am at a loss. !!!!!!!!!!!!!

hi, the file is a tar.bz2, i downloaded it from the sourceforge website and tried to uncompress it(by entering tar -xjvf /home/nova/download/scribus-1.3.3.9.tar.bz2). however this is what i got when i try it : tar: /home/nova/download/scribus-1.3.3.9.tar.bz2: Cannot open: No such file or d irectory tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now tar: Child returned status 2 tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors any idea what is wrong ?

well, i have installed the scribus version 1.3.3.8 going through the steps you describe. however, i downloaded the tar version of scribus 13.3.9 and this is this version that i do not know how to install since it is a .tar file. i look for a rpm version of the scribus 1.3.3.9 but was not successful in finding one.
