Picasa for GNU/Linux
http://picasa.google.com/linux/ (official site)
http://arstechnica.com/news.ars/post/20060526-6931.html (arstechnica article) Picasa is now software that runs on GNU/Linux. It's gratis, but Google did contribute some code (mostly WINE-related): http://code.google.com/wine.html |
I read on slashdot that this is only available to the USA unless gotten off of mirrors.

I install it and so far it's doing good enough. Although alpha (basically uses WINE instead of Qt, GTK or other more 'native toolkit'). |
This has been my fave program in windows. Now I have it in linux. WOW. Thankyou Picasa.
|
I won't touch it unless they produce native Linux binary.

i did install it 3 times ; first with rpm2tgz to change into slack format(i use slackware)as root ...once more as user(binary)...once more the binary as root .....same result...i am congratulated for a successfull install and when i try to run it nothing happens , no errors messages...zilch.....maybe because my old kernel 2.4.26...oh well......it would have been nice for the red eyes issue though .i<ll give it a few more tries later.

It's good news, but until Google make a beta native Linux binary I will be using digiKam from now on.
