Media view/read softwares

[shawn wilson]

Irfanview will work for 90% of most peoples' image editing needs. For the
rest(as mentioned) there's the Gimp - which also has a fairly large set of
python (and possibly imagemagik) plugins.

Try 'aptitude search image' and see what you get. Also search for picture
maybe.

of them open your music. I find that all my music in Amorok works well, just
click or drag a single file over. If you just want to click on a music file
and have it play then try VLC. It plays all sorts of things, movies as well
as music. Take a look arund the repositories in KpackageKit until you find
the one that is best for you.

I found a version of the Gimp for XP so I don't entirely get what you mean.
If you just need a preview of any of those types of files have you found the
Information panel in Dolphin yet? To see it either press F11 or click View
--> Panels --> Information. When you highlight a file you get a preview
along with the finle info (as long as you have the correct codecs installed
of course bu tit sounds like you already found the Medibuntu repository).
You can play a song, watch a movie, look at a picture, etc right in your
file manager. Editing them will have to be in an outside application as far
as I know.
