pemasu, thanks again. I am clueless too, the same thing happens with xnview.sh

The weird thing is, it does not happen with the previous (0.34) version of Xnview. I wonder what the differences between the two are.

But anyway, the 0.39 is also not yet perfect. It still crashes sometimes, the word unstable in the title bar is ther for a reason. But eventually, whenever a 1.0 version is reached, it will be a killer of a photo viewer.

BTW - do you have any idea where the rating info about the photos is stored? If you rate the photos with Xnview, and open the folder on another machine with the same version of Xnview the rating info is lost. I would be very convenient if the rating info could be back-upped somewhere (especially after rating a couple of hundreds of photos).

No...I dont have that profound understanding or Xnview. But Xnview website has active forum threads and info threads. I am sure that knowledge is buried somewhere there....

Hello,
Tried to make XnView MP 0.39 and XnConvert MP 1.1 combo sfs running with Racy 5.3 (as well as with Racy/Wary 5.X)... without success! Confused

Launched in console, I get:

Line 12 launches the xnview and xnconvert binary. It looks like to be incompatible with Wary/Racy. I cant do much about it. The source code of xnview and xnconvert is not available. I can only package the apps for Puppies....but cant compile them.

Hello,
I downloaded xnview 0.39 from the official site, uncompressed it directly in my downloads directory, opened xnview directory and just clicked on xnview.sh: this ran perfectly "out of the box", in French (Racy 5.3 pfix=ram)! So, I think this is not a problem of "compatibility", but just some lib or file path which has to be set/linked somewhere?

Cordialement.
