OK, just FYI: This only happens on one box - 2 others (laptop, desktop) run fine with no errors.
If I uninstall xsane, then the Gimp starts just fine. On *this* box it always hangs. When I do a ps I see this: kenw 9011 0.0 0.1 14592 2992 ? D 11:15 0:00 /usr/lib/gimp/2.0/plug-ins/xsane -gimp 9 8 -query 0 I ran just that command under gdb and got the following: (xsane:9163): GLib-WARNING **: /build/buildd/glib2.0-2.14.1/glib/giounix.c:400Error while getting flags for FD: Bad file descriptor (9) (xsane:9163): GLib-WARNING **: /build/buildd/glib2.0-2.14.1/glib/giounix.c:400Error while getting flags for FD: Bad file descriptor (9) (xsane:9163): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_io_channel_write_chars: assertion `channel->is_writeable' failed (xsane:9163): LibGimp-WARNING **: xsane: gimp_flush(): error (xsane:9163): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_io_channel_write_chars: assertion `channel->is_writeable' failed (xsane:9163): LibGimp-WARNING **: xsane: gimp_flush(): error Program exited normally. Now, it's possible that running the command outside of the Gimp may cause the errors you see above. I can say that once it hangs and I interrupt gdb it's always in _kernel_vsyscall if that helps.
