Hi all,

I'm running GIMP 1.2.5 in GNOME 2.4 (using nVidia drivers) on Gentoo Linux.

I've emerge'd GIMP and attempted to use it, and while mostly all the
options work, I can't seem to get the color selector panel to show
anything with the exception of the tabs across the top - no options, no
colors to select from, nothing but the tabs... and every tab is blank...
have a look at this screen shot, and it may clarify what I'm "prattling"
on about:

All the tabs look like that one, regardless of what I choose.

I've also run it with --verbose, and this is what I see:

$ gimp --verbose
parsing "/etc/gimp/1.2/gtkrc"
parsing "/home/evilric/.gimp-1.2/gtkrc"
parsing "/home/evilric/.gimp-1.2/unitrc"
parsing "/etc/gimp/1.2/gimprc"
parsing "/home/evilric/.gimp-1.2/gimprc"
parsing "/home/evilric/.gimp-1.2/parasiterc"
parsing "/home/evilric/.gimp-1.2/pluginrc"

load module: "/usr/lib/gimp/1.2/modules/libcolorsel_water.so"
parsing "/home/evilric/.gimp-1.2/sessionrc"

Those modules mentioned are where they're supposed to be, and it appears
that the permissions are set so that a user can see / use them.

Any suggestions on how to get my color selection screens working correctly?

If this is of help -- I had the same problem with gRIP... it would
display the application and the tabs, but there were no options to
choose from on the tabs...

Thanking you in advance...
