Well, after reinstalling 10.2.6 in order to get X11 running again, I
have noticed a strange behavior that I hope some one can explain and
tell me how to fix it. This behavior is not new. Gimp has always
behaved this way under X11 windows manager.
1. If I run Gimp with the X11 windows manager it will not recognize
tiff or png files, however if I start one of the other windows managers
like kde or gnome or enlightenment. Then launch Gimp from that windows
manager it will recognize tiffs and png just fine, what gives? I know
the tiff and png libs are installed.
