actually, since it's -29, I'm staying inside...things are changing so fast with regard to tomorrow that I have to keep up.

Bret

I might actually have to get up now. The boat the guys are on is at least an hour late, so I'm wondering if I need to leave at 6 or not. OTOH, I have minimal light pollution here, so if I were to go out to the countryside (I'm talking 10 minutes drive) then I'd be in complete darkness apart from the nearly-full moon and starlight.

Bret

ha, I have to be up at 5 tomorrow anyway. Maybe I'll try to check some of these out....

Bret

well, they're nearly at Lübeck, so the boys and girls will all meet in the next hour or so.... then the chaos will really start, day after tomorrow

Bret

none of the good ones are cheap, and if they're anything like my cokin filters, they're pretty easy to scratch, too

Bret

get the spray paint out - but if it's a real one, it's orange and cream anyway, which will work beautifully with those kitten heels from Michael Kors in tiger print

Bret

.. which is a lovely red colour, and I have matching gloves, hat an scarf in this all natural grey colour! It's sooo next season! ciao darlings! Mwah!

a) upgrade to Win7
b) make sure that your profiles are applied properly, and that you don't calibrate until the monitor and / or LCD has been on for a while (>30min); my calibrations get lost occasionally on this machine, whereas at work they're stable now I've set something up in Task Scheduler.

I'd check first that the calibration is correct for both monitors (and it's not using a setting intended for a different monitor) and I'd also suggest running the calibration whilst lying about the controls on the monitor. That way, the software will try and fix everything as opposed to manual controls which may not give you the results intended.

Vista is truly awful in comparison to 7 and I'd recommend anyone the upgrade: it's faster and far less likely to bluescreen.

Bret

yes it should be possible - that's exactly how I have it. A 20Wide with 1680x1050 and a 15 with 1440x900.

Which OS? Win7 is a lot smarter than XP about this...

Bret

Sorry, I didn't describe that correctly.

It hasn't stopped as such, but there's been no new release with several important cameras. G12, NEX, 60D...And now I'm seriously wondering - considering the number of requests on the board which remain unanswered or "use the CVS version", well, I'm drawing my own conclusions.

I wanted / needed batch, but since it didn't really work in 0.17, I've gone to RAW+ and that obviates the need.

Are you in a position to be able to compile a windows executable from the CVS repository sources?
