I seem to be having an issue with gimp 2.8. It works fine whenever I'm root - i.e. sudo - but whenever I run it as... me, I get an "Unable to open a test swap file" error. I googled it, but all I've found was a headache. Help!

I found this:

"I had the same problem - took me a long time to sort it out. I have Lion.

Select your hard drive. Then 'get info' - (I think from the file menu I'm not quite sure as I'm not on the mac now).

You then get a box allowing you to change your permissions - down at the bottom. change the relevant user (your own ID) to 'read and write'. It worked. Good luck."

I'm using Ubuntu 13.04, so I'm not sure if that'll work. Worth a try, though

Tried changing permissions. Didn't work. Should I just reinstall?



Looks like reinstalling didn't work

Never mind. Broke down and got the Windows version. It's a lot more stable...

Wait, wasn't this thread somewhere else? Why is this in Spatula?

...?

It's also in the Computing forum. I figured putting it in Spatula was a bad idea AFTER the fact.
