I have a Kubuntu intrepid installation. I wanted to try out out Bibble and downloaded and installed the trial .deb

Everything went fine, and all seems to work OK, until I went to try out the B&W filter plugin.

I found that while the plug in dialog comes up, enabling it does not do anything, just does not alter the image.

Also, the drop down list box is empty. Looking further I found this was true for all the plugins, the dialogs are present, bet if you enable them they do nothing, and all the drop down list boxes are empty.

Can anybody shed any light on this? A lot of my output is B&W and being able to do color filters (for monochrome) is quite important to me.

While I am here, can anybody advise me on 2 other features I use in PSP for which I cannot see how I would do is Bibble. The first is "clarify", in particular the "Clarify" which appears on PSP's B&W filter. The second is how do I tint an image once I have made it monochrome?

Thanks for any tips help or advice.

Thanks afx.

I don't know why the plugins worked before but don't in my new install. However your fix worked a treat.

p.s. Don't forget to sudo if using Ubuntu as well. (I'm using 64bit Jaunty)

For some reason /usr/lib/bibblelabs/bibblepro/Plugins/* the P of plugins is lower case.

i.e. /usr/lib/bibblelabs/bibblepro/plugins/*

But /usr/lib/bibblelabs/bibblepro/tools/Plugins/* is as written with the upper case P. Rolling Eyes

I have recently upgraded to Ubuntu Karmic 64bit and this modification is not working for me (worked fine on Jaunty). I have checked and double checked the permissions and they all look correct after running the above instructions but Andy B&W and ND grad have empty combos and do not work. Anyone got any ideas?

When yourun bibble from the commandline, do you see any messages regarding the plugins in the output?

That looks normal. You do have an image active do you (just making sure)?

Yep, I do have an image active. Not quite sure what to do next, anyone got any suggestions? Not been stuck like this for years! Are there any Bibble log files? Can I turn on debugging or anything like that?
