Trusty 14.04 x86_64 GIMP will not run after install
Sorry if some terms are off, still learning Linux.
Here is what I have done.
#1. Install GIMP from Software Center
#2. Click application icon to run
(icon lights up, mouse pointer changes to spinning wheel, then nothing happens.)
#3. Open terminal and $gimp
# response:
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
#4. $ lsb_release -a; uname -a; dpkg -l | grep gimp
# response:
No LSB modules are available.
