Hi, all,

I recently got a digital camera, and I've figured out how to get the 
pictures to the computer (gphoto2), and how to convert the raw images to 
tifs (dcraw), so now I need to fix up those raw photos so they don't 
look like reddish-black mud.

I found cinepaint, which is a version of gimp which can handle the 16 
bits-per-channel tifs.  Unfortunately, I don't know much about using 
gimp.  Does anyone know how to straighten out both the color and the 
brightness on photos?  Odds are that anything you can do with gimp would 
work with cinepaint.

Also, does anyone know about color management for linux?  I found 
liblcms, but that's a library.  I'm looking for a way to calibrate X so 
that my monitor shows what the printer shows.  That should be way 
cheaper and easier than matching a Pantone wheel.

By the way, getting the camera working with knoppix was trivial. 
Gphoto2 was already installed, and has support for my camera (canon s50) 
and 399 others.

Thanks,
Nels
