[SOLVED] MAGEIA 4 GIMP problem with xscanimage

Postby soundmanbe » Feb 2nd, '14, 22:56

Hi,
with mageia 4, Gimp stop running when testing the xscanimage in the start menu. When trying to start xscanimage with the console the result is : xscanimage
Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module"
. Canberra is installed but xscanimage don't find it. No way actually to use Gimp.
Any suggestions?

Installing package lib64canberra_gtk0 should do the trick. (libcanberra_gtk0 for a 32bit system)
for windows problems reboot; for linux problems be root

Apart from that, that's only an informational message in most cases, xscanimage should start without libcanberra-gtk.

Well,

With the lib64canberra-gtk0 module installed, no more error message when trying to start xscanimage (console)...but still no response from GIMP ...still stopping on xcanimage's cheking, but if I stop the xcanimage process (System activity) Gimp start correctly. How to fix xcanimage?
Coming from Mageia 3 x64 with the online upgrade to mageia 4. All the softwares where working very well on 3. Now, problem with GIMP, Digikam doesn't start, xcanimage doesn't start the graphical environment ... and communication problem error when compiling Vmware....(well it's another problem) and I haven't check allready all my installed programs. :cry:
Hope I'm the only one with so many problems...
All suggestions are welcom. ;)
Thank's to try to help me.
