« The patient in recovery is unable to keep from fiddling with
his bandages and is made to wear a t-shirt to keep him from damaging
them. It looks more dignified than a cone, but makes him look goofy
anyway. :) »
Given how the week has gone, including getting trapped in the lift
that goes down to the machine room bunker at least 4 times, and that
tomorrow is Friday the 13th I am considering staying at home and
hiding under my bed with a book and a bottle of whisky. :)
Jarkko showed me a hilarious trailer for Star Wreck V: The Pirkinning
tonight which made me try to think of how many space or sci-fi Finnish
movies there are and I couldn't think of any. I thought the lack was
somewhat curious. As the title might suggest, Star Wreck is a
series that features characters with names that are fun to say,
like Mr. Fukov.
We finally took Otava in for an x-ray after his limp continued and
settled in on one leg. The x-rays showed that his hips are very good
but that the elbow on the gimpy leg had an inflammation due to a
thickening of the cartilage, a.k.a. Osteochondrit
is dissecans or OD, on the surface of the joint part of which
breaks off and causes pain in the joint. The vet took him into surgery
straightaway, removed the offending bit of cartilage and reported that
the joint looked very good otherwise and that he should recover
nicely.
He was awfully groggy when we went to pick him up and the vet seemed
to think that he could gimp the few blocks home without a problem, but
after about 20 metres he sat down clearly zoned out of his gourd, and
drooled so we called a taxi to rescue us. As soon as he came through
the door at home he flopped down in the hallway and I sat next to him
and read a book for a few hours until he woke up and whined at me. I
didn't want him to come out of the anesthesia alone since the last
thing he knew we were sitting in the vet's office while he was
thinking about food, sex or sleep. The vet suggested that we put a
t-shirt on him if he started trying to lick or chew at his dressings
and this provided at least an hour of comedy between getting the shirt
on, giggling at how he looked in it and the amazing amount of
attention he seemed to attract while walking him in the shirt. :)
In spite of his surgery, he is beyond eager to go to the park and
play with his pals and exhibits an extreme amount of stubbornness when
that singular goal is not achieved. He is all Missouri mule when it
comes down to the battle of leaving the park. It's going to be a long
month of petulant stubborn puppy while his joint heals.

The GIMP is the GNU Image Manipulation Program. It is a freely
distributed piece of software suitable for such tasks as photo
retouching, image composition and image authoring. It can be used as a
simple paint program, an expert quality photo retouching program, an
online batch processing system, a mass production image renderer, a
image format converter, etc.
Changes:
A large number of bugs have been fixed, and users
are asked to update. In case you wonder what
happened to version 2.2.5, it had a bug in the
Print plug-in and was immidiately replaced by the
2.2.6 release.

Gimp# is a C# wrapper around the GIMP API. It also offers a plugin
framework. This enables users to quickly write new GIMP plugins using
.NET or Mono.
Changes:
The Slicer plug-in is now almost feature complete. It can now generate
for example rollover code (JavaScript). There is a new plug-in that
can read wbmp (wireless bitmaps) and as always there are many
bugfixes. In particular one critical bug was resolved that should make
this release much more stable than the previous one.

Gimp-Print 4.2.6 (stable)
01/16/2004 11:05 AMGimp-Print 4.2.6, released January 11, 2004, is a stable release in
the Gimp-Print 4.2 series. This is expected to be the last release in
the 4.2 series. Gimp-Print is a suite of printer drivers that may be
used with most common UNIX print spooling systems, including CUPS,
lpr, LPRng, or others. These drivers provide high quality printing
for UNIX (including Macintosh OS X 10.2 and newer) and Linux systems
in many cases equal to or better than proprietary vendor-supplied
drivers, and can be used for many of the most demanding printing
tasks.
This software includes the Print plug-in for the Gimp, and GhostScript
and CUPS drivers, including Foomatic data.
The Print plug-in for the GIMP requires the Gimp 1.2. The Gimp 1.3
is not supported at this time.
The CUPS driver requires CUPS 1.1.9 or higher. 1.1.14 or above is
highly recommended, as certain translation-related bugs are fixed and
it is possible to print true CMYK.
The Ghostscript driver requires GNU Ghostscript 5.10, 5.50, 6.51, or
any
later GNU Ghostscript release based on 6.51 (e. g. 6.52). It may also
be used with GNU Ghostscript 7.05, or with ESP Ghostscript 7.05.
The IJS GhostScript plugin driver requires GNU Ghostscript 6.53 or
later, ESP Ghostscript 7.05 or later, or APFL GhostScript 7.04 or
later.
Users of Macintosh OS X 10.2 and above can use this package, as the
printing system is based on CUPS, which is supported by Gimp-print.
Note that Macintosh OS X 10.0 and 10.1 (including 10.1.5) cannot use
this package. We recommend that Macintosh OS X users download the
precompiled installer package from
http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/MacOSX.php3 rather than attempt to
build this package from source, as using the installer is much
simpler. We further recommend that Macintosh OS X users install ESP
GhostScript, to permit printing from Carbon applications (such as most
Adobe applications) that generate PostScript rather than PDF output.
Directions for that are also available at
http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/MacOSX.php3.
Please read the README file for full instructions on installing this
package from source code.
Gimp-Print 4.2.6 contains the following major changes over Gimp-Print
4.2.5:
* Major bugs fixed:
1) (bug 627266) The CUPS driver offers an "Autoselect" option for
the
media source (input slot). This behavior cannot be disabled.
Previous versions of Gimp-Print did not handle this option
appropriately. This option is now handled appropriately, by
treating it as the default input slot for the printer.
2) (bug 729918) The PostScript driver (used only in the Print plugin
for the GIMP) did not operate correctly if the locale was set to
something other than the US English locale.
3) (bug 668342) The Canon S-450, and other Canon printers, only
printed the first page of a multi-page job if the printer was
hosted on a Windows system.
4) (bug 842715) The Epson Stylus Color 600, 800, 850, 1520, and 3000
failed to print in black and white or grayscale at certain
resolutions.
5) (bug 865253) In certain cases, the PPD file generator for CUPS
may not generate all of the PPD files, or may not generate them
correctly. The underlying problem is some versions of CUPS
specify a linker command line that forces an old version of the
Gimp-Print driver library to be used when building the PPD files.
This fix works correctly unless --disable-static (to disable
building static libraries) is passed on the command line.
Normally, only people packaging up Gimp-Print for distribution
use this option. If you wish to use this option, please read the
Exceptions and Workarounds *carefully* for a full description of
the problem along with suggested methods of procedure.
* New Functionality:
1) A number of newer Epson Stylus printers and multi-function
devices
are supported. Please see the supported printers list at the
bottom of this file for full information on supported printers.
2) The Canon S200 is now supported.
3) The European 10x15 cm and US Engineering C paper sizes have been
added.
4) The CUPS driver now offers normal and reversed paper order,
permitting printing documents in the correct page order on inkjet
and some laser printers.
5) A Czech language translation has been added.
* Quality improvements:
1) Under OS X, the options are grouped more appropriately, making
for
easier use.
2) Some Epson printer resolution names have been changed for
clarity.
This change does not introduce an incompatibility.
3) The escputil command no longer hangs if the printer does not
respond.
4) Minor speed improvement for the HP LaserJet IIP.
5) Minor adjustment to the HP DeskJet 340 margins.
6) The PPD files have been audited for conformance to the PPD
specification.
* Exceptions and Workarounds:
1) There are longstanding reports of problems printing with certain
USB-parallel adapters on Macintosh OS X. In particular, many
users have reported problems with the Keyspan adapter; we
recommend that users having problems try different brands of
adapters, and avoid using USB hubs. Please check our
web site (http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/MacOSX.php3) for a
link to a user feedback forum regarding these cables.
2) Mac OS X users who use the Epson Printer Utility (provided by
Epson with their standard driver set) to check ink levels and
perform maintenance tasks, such as head cleaning or head
alignment, may encounter print job failures when attempting to
print with the Gimp-Print driver after using the Epson
utility. The cause for this failure is currently unknown, but the
workaround is to completely power-cycle the printer, after which
the Gimp-Print driver should again print normally. Another
option is to disable the Epson Printer Utility.
3) The Mac OS X print dialog may offer an "Autoselect" option as the
default media source (input slot) on some printers. This option
may not be valid and can result in nothing being printed. The
workaround is to choose a different setting (explicitly select
the input slot you wish to use).
4) The new HP DesignJets have not been fully tuned. In particular,
there are reports that they print too light. This can be
corrected with the Density adjustment (try 1.5~1.7 or
thereabouts).
5) The list of compatible and potentially compatible Hewlett-Packard
printers has been updated with the latest available information.
If a particular printer does not work with the recommended
driver, we recommend that you try other similar drivers, check
the Feature Requests at
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?atid=101537&group_id=1537&func=browse,
and if the printer is not listed please file a feature request
(via the Submit New button).
6) Borderless (full-bleed) printing is not quite correct on the
Epson Stylus Photo printers that support it (see bug 621668).
Typically, the left or right margin is off by 1 mm or less,
resulting in a very fine white strip on that edge.
7) Many Canon printers do not print correctly at 720x360 DPI. The
workaround is to use 360 or 720 DPI.
8) Many new Epson Stylus printers do not return status to the
escputil command (for ink level check, etc). We recommend use of
the mtink tool (please see http://xwtools.automatix.de) for this
purpose.
9) With certain versions of CUPS and in certain configurations, if a
new version of Gimp-Print is installed over an existing version
genppd will create PPD files based on the older version of
Gimp-Print rather than the newer version. This will happen if all
of the following are true:
1) The cups-config provided by the CUPS driver adds
-Wl,rpath=/usr/lib. This is done by some versions of CUPS
reportedly because in some cases the runtime linker does not
pick up libraries out of /usr/lib. This can be checked by
running
cups-config --libs --ldflags
and inspecting the output for any mention of "rpath", "RPATH",
"RUN_PATH", or the like.
2) There is presently a version of Gimp-Print installed in /usr
(--prefix=/usr) rather than /usr/local or the like.
3) Gimp-Print is built dynamically only (--disable-static)
Note that in general if you install CUPS into a non-standard
location, and install Gimp-Print into the same location, this
problem can surface.
This bug is difficult to detect in a normal build. It does not
cause an error to happen during build; the only failure is that
some PPD files may not be built or may be built with missing
options.
In this case, the run path embedded in the genppd executable
points to the version of Gimp-Print installed in /usr/lib. This
run path overrides any attempt by libtool to look in the build
directory. The result is that genppd is run against the older
version of Gimp-Print. If the new version contains additional
features (more printers, etc.) they will not be available to
genppd.
If you wish to use only shared libraries, and do not wish to
build static libraries at all, there are three workarounds
available:
1) Build and install Gimp-Print into /usr (rather than
/usr/local) and then rebuild Gimp-Print from scratch. This
will install the correct libgimpprint.so in /usr/lib, and in
the rebuild genppd will be run against the correct library.
2) Remove the old version of Gimp-Print prior to building the new
version of Gimp-Print. The important files to remove are
anything named /usr/lib/libgimpprint*.
3) Edit cups-config to remove the reference to the run path.
The following bugs have been fixed in Gimp-Print 4.2.6:
627266 Mac OS X: Autoselect option incorrectly offered
668342 Canon S-450 prints only one page of a job
