camorri Posted February 27, 2010 Report Share Posted February 27, 2010 I have been looking for a program to do some basic, quick and dirty photo edits. I know you can get the Gimp to do just about anything, if you have the time to learn it. My problem is I don't have the time, hence the search. Any way, after some Googling, one suggestion is Fotoxx. I install fotoxx-9.5-1mdv2010.0.x86_64 on Mandirva 2010 64 bit system. The problem is the Fotoxx crashes, with a segfault when you try to load a jpeg file once the program is loaded. I have discovered the program can load an image if you load it at startup time from the command line. Example 'fotoxx image.jpg' loads the file image.jpg, and you can edit it. The segfault is annoying, it means you can not load images after launching the program. I have removed and re-installed, the problem remains. Has anyone else tried this program? BTW there are two versions on the repos, both segfault loading images. Any thoughts on how to trouble shoot this?

ianw1974 Posted February 27, 2010 Report Share Posted February 27, 2010 I just installed this too, as I have Mandriva 2010 x86_64. I also have the same problem. So there's obviously something not right with the program. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pindakoe Posted February 27, 2010 Report Share Posted February 27, 2010 Similar experiences with the 32 bit version for 2009.1 -- crashed several times. I have returned to Picasa for managing my collection and making quick/basic edits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camorri Posted February 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2010 Thank-you for the replies. I guess I'll give Picasa another try. I had it installed on an older version of Mandriva. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
