I am trying to run gimp which was working fine earlier on my desktop. It freezes. When I get into this machine using vncviewer and run gimp then it works fine. gimp ran in gnome : - INIT: gimp_load_config Parsing '/home/tommy/.gimp-2.6/unitrc' Parsing '/etc/gimp/2.0/gimprc' Parsing '/home/tommy/.gimp-2.6/gimprc' gimp_composite: use=yes, verbose=no Processor instruction sets: +mmx +sse +sse2 -3dnow -altivec -vis Adding theme 'Default' (/usr/share/gimp/2.0/themes/Default) Adding theme 'Small' (/usr/share/gimp/2.0/themes/Small) Writing '/home/tommy/.gimp-2.6/themerc' Trying splash '/home/tommy/.gimp-2.6/gimp-splash.png' ... failed Trying splash '/usr/share/gimp/2.0/images/gimp-splash.png' ...

How long did you wait?
I don't understand your question, wait for what?
oh if you are asking about for gimp to openup? It was around 15-20 minutes, Thanks
Gimp's GtkScaleButton conflicts with GTK's, according to this bug [1]. The fix is included in the 2.6.5 release, so upgrading should fix the issue. [1] https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=567840
upgrading fixed the issue (for me at least). I suggest this bug be closed.
Fixed in current versions in main tree.
