At this moment I am running an unstable development version 2.9.9. This has been installed in the past 2 months.
But when I had 2.8 it was still the same issue.
I have also found some weird behavior that did not make sense. Difficult to remember, but I posted the question on Google gimp group.
Most could not understand what the issue was.
Could this be an interface problem. I have been running openbox as my interface for a long time now. Could this be the problem??
