In addition, relying on your information, I installed gimp-2.0.2 and Gimp-2.0 (AKA Gimp-Perl :-). (I'm not a Perl expert, it was a craze to install new and new Perl modules... ;-) Now Gimp starts OK, and I can work with it. If I want to test the files in Gimp-2.0/t, I get the following: kovzol@wmi:/usr/src/packages/SOURCES/Gimp-2.0/t> ls loadlib.t load.t run.t kovzol@wmi:/usr/src/packages/SOURCES/Gimp-2.0/t> perl run.t 1..26 ok 1 ok 2 # skip ok 3 # skip ok 4 # skip ok 5 ok 6 ok 7 ok 8 run.t: unable to read the Perl-Server at run.t line 109. (ERROR) run.t: required callback 'net' not found (ERROR) kovzol@wmi:/usr/src/packages/SOURCES/Gimp-2.0/t> perl loadlib.t 1..1 ok 1 Now as I start gimp-2.0.2 and start a Perl server using the graphical user interface: kovzol@wmi:/usr/src/packages/SOURCES/Gimp-2.0/t> gimp-2.0 & [1] 17697 kovzol@wmi:/usr/src/packages/SOURCES/Gimp-2.0/t> 1087410137: server version 2 started 1087410137: accepting connections on /tmp/gimp-perl-serv-uid-500/gimp-perl-serv kovzol@wmi:/usr/src/packages/SOURCES/Gimp-2.0/t> perl run.t 1..26 ok 1 ok 2 # skip ok 3 # skip ok 4 # skip ok 5 ok 6 ok 7 ok 8 run.t: unable to read the Perl-Server at run.t line 109. (ERROR) run.t: required callback 'net' not found (ERROR) Is this OK? (I got the same output when no Perl-server was started.) Now I'm trying to start my gimp-1.2 Perl-Fu script (attached): kovzol@wmi:~> cd /home/wmi/cvs/wmi/ui/ kovzol@wmi:/home/wmi/cvs/wmi/ui> ./oval-buttons.pl 1087410392: accepted unix connection Illegal default font description for perl_fu_mysite_buttons: -*-luxi sans-medium-r-*-*-24-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-2 oval-buttons.pl: Expected an INT32 but got 'BG_IMAGE_FILL'. Add '*1' if you really intend to pass in a string at ./oval-buttons.pl line 110 (DIE) 1087410424: closing connection 9 (45 requests in 32 seconds) The error message appeared after I changed the font (successfully) and pressed "OK" (finally, to generate the .xcf file). In gimp-1.2 there were no such problems (and the .xcf file was successfully generated). Could you please help? TIA, Zoltan
