this is mypaint ..



MyPaint is a fast and easy open-source graphics application for digital painters. It lets you focus on the art instead of the program. You work on your canvas with minimum distractions, bringing up the interface only when you need it.

MyPaint comes with a large brush collection including charcoal and ink to emulate real media, but the highly configurable brush engine allows you to experiment with your own brushes and with not-quite-natural painting.

Before beginning it is a good idea to read the quick-start tutorial http://mypaint.intilinux.com/?page_id=3

Thank you.
Mypaint is a nice application.

Works very well on Upup Precise 3.7.2.
Thanks.

I tried to install Mypaint 1.0.0 but it works for me only in a fresh installed Precise.

In Precise where I load .sfs files like VirtualBox, Java, LibreOffice, Devx and Kernel Source (my work softwares), Mypaint program don't work, if I try to launch it via command-line it gives to me an error message that I attach in this page .

This happens in Upup Precise 3.7.2 and Upup Precise 3.2.9

Thanks.

hi Fabio T,

you're possibly installing something containing python modules, which aren't compatible with precises python.
the devx, kernel src & libre office are fine as i have them installed and mypaint works fine.... i can't see virtualbox affecting it, what are these 'work softwares' ?

Note to 666philb...

There is at least two versions(2.6 or 2.7) of python available on the forum.
The official repository 'Packages-puppy-precise-official'
by Barry Kauler doesn't have a package.


It would help the users if you told us which python pet or sfs
package to use.

hi don570

precise puppy comes with python already installed so no need to install a python package, and it is compatible with the python modules in the PPM.

installing python.pets from the forum, or apps which contain python modules that aren't from the ubuntu precise repos, will break compatibility with python apps in the PPM

[Fabio T]

It's strange, but Mypaint works only if is loaded as the first app even in .sfs, when I install Bluetooth, Card Driver, Wacom Driver and xbacklight, don't works anymore.

If I don't load wacom driver I can't test it with touchscreen....

How can I install version 1.1.0? I had read readme file but suggested commands don't works...

[666philb]

hi Fabio T

i've updated the mypaint package to 1.1.0.... see first post

is the bluetooth package the one off the forum, with python?

[Fabio T]

Is the package Bluetooth 0.5

I installed it and Mypaint halts with errors, I remove Bluetooth .pet and Mypaint works correctly

Good News!!

MyPaint 1.1 SFSworks in Puplette and ToOpPy.

and Wacom Bamboo Tablette works in Puplette
(not in ToOpPy).


xf86-input_k.3.2.29-upup-wacom-0.17.0.pet
available

This is my experience with Mypaint 1.1.0 .SFS:
In Upup Precise 3.7.2. works fine (but I don't load Bluetooth Mouse Driver).

In a fresh installed Upup Precise 3.8.3, Mypaint 1.1.0 .SFS won't start.

I enclose a snapshot of error message that complains that icons are missed.

I follow the web link in the error message and instructions in the web page, but without any success.

What can I do to make Mypaint in order to work on Upup 3.8.3?

Thanks in advance
