GIMP for N800

[debudebu]

It looks like someone ported Gimp to the N800. I saw this clip on youtube

[realcomix]

I wannt that more than anything.... I wonder how it was ported

[realcomix]

This is what i dug up about this port from an irc log
http://mg.pov.lt/maemo-irclog/%23maemo.2007-04-16.log.html#t2007-04-16T08:41:23

[SeRi@lDiE]

so where is the port?
It could also be a x over ssh application

[jnack95]

Why would anyone want this? The gimp is hard enough to use on a desktop (albeit very powerful).

[Texrat]

I wouldn't mind a streamlined version...

[benny1967]

What most people miss is a much more simple application that would help them to resize/brighten/rotate... pictures from their cameras before they blog/mail them.

Try this one, it can do some of it (and getting better all the time):

Is the port ready? I am interested :)

quiver works for me. I'm using it as a better photo viewer. Rotation doesn't seem to always work, it's possible to crash the program (it seems to be a problem with large, full-size images. Small ones work). But after some more testing it seems to still have some limitations that won't help for when you want to publish images: It can flip, rotate and zoom, but 'Save as' doesn't seem to be enabled yet. And the desktop version can crop images too I believe, but I don't see how to do that on the N800 version. In any case, as long as the result can't be saved it can't really be used for editing. But it is a _great_ image viewer! Much better than the built-in application.

[SeRi@lDiE]

Mhhhh ic I am actually looking for resizing.. Anything out there for N800?

[sevenape]

for simple photo editing, you can use this website!

Where are you getting libglade from? When I try to install on my N800, it fails because it cannot find libglade.

Thanks

[TA-t3]

The libglade I have installed (libglade2-0) comes from the bora free repository at repository.maemo.org

(I'm on N800)

[kbarter]

Thanks.

I thought I had that repository already, but it turns out I had the extras setup instead.

Everything installs properly now.

[Mika73]

So how this software should be installed..

First tryed install it and got error that some software packages that are needed are missing..

Then find out that libgrade needs to be installed, when try install it.

When try install it I get error that its not compatible with software I have..

:confused:

[mikemorrison]

So how this software should be installed..

Add the appropriate SDK repository and then try again:

For Bora:
http://downloads.maemo.org/product/bora_sdk_repo

For Gregale:
http://downloads.maemo.org/product/gregale_sdk_repo

[Mika73]

Whats difference of those two? I have N800 model.

[mikemorrison]

You will want to follow the Bora link then. The N800 uses OS 2007 which is compatible with the Maemo 3 platform (Bora).

[Mika73]

Thanks. It works :)

Gimp is dead, unless someone wants to take it over and hildon the danm thing.
I can't get the hang of hildonizing src files....
if you just want the binary to run....

http://maemo.divshare.com
http://n800.divshare.com

you will find working src files and binarys(compiledNworking)..

[torx]

Well, it'll work without hildonzing in KDE right?

[unique311]

yes it will.
it works, just with that danm hildon desktop, not worth using it..
full screen on the drawing area is what i want.
mtpaint provides that somewhat.....
mtpaint seems like it'll be the option to go with if you know how to hildon apps.

going to compile gimp with some other options and play with the results....
have a working binary for you guys...

Has there been any progress with the maemo GIMP / gimpy?
Or another photo (capable) editor?

Looking through the maemo garage, everything seems very quiet.

My main feature requests center around a compact basic photo application that is able to zoom in/out (so you can set your crop selection better) & crop, entire photo resize, rotate image 90L 90R, some minor adjustments (brightness, contrast) and save as (so you wouldn't be overwriting the original) with a quality setting slider (to control the size of the JPG somewhat).

I think that would cover the essentials to allow a blog post with one or more photos in an entry. Or to get an image to flickr or photo sharing site.

Hi. The Images app in the N810 SW release has gained some of these functionalities. Namely:

- Cropping (with zooming available, with aspect ratios and pixels)
- Resizing (percentage, pixels)
- Flipping (horizontal, vertical)
- Rotate 90 degrees left and right
- Save as: png, bmp, jpeg, tiff
- Jpeg quality: Low, medium, good, high

And they work rather nicely.

So quite a lot will be already available. :)

[sarcastic delurking]

Oh, wow. So it's now almost as good as Microsoft Paint?

I compiled gimp and considered putting it with KDE, but it ran badly, and the way its displays is just not usefull on 800x480. At least not to me.

very heavy CPU on n800, although I am sure, someone could slim it down and make it more useable. Perhaps there other candidates that might work better?

[bh77a]

Has anyone made any progress with GIMP on the n800? Perhaps even just a binary to try?

Are there any other drawing / graphics apps? I have found Faint so far...

I would love to see Blender, GIMP, etc if anyone knows of any way that they can be run.

Thanks!
