I have previously installed Mathmap in Fedora 17 and I am missing the extra plug-ins. I have always found them in PC's site but I don't see them there. These files need to go into my expression folder (user > share > gimp > 2.0 > mathmap > expressions ) and they should include the plug-in "from Nadie Zenith, To Nadie Zenith and several more.
Can someone please direct me to these files so I can place them in my expression folder.

Thank you

At a guess, how many are you missing, all or none?

These were not in my standard installation either, so just the 2 fromnadirzenith & fromnadirzenith. zipped, the bb would not accept mm files.

This is what I downloaded but I don't know if I put the Extra-Map into my expressions folder OR open that folder and copy and paste what is inside to that folder.
I want all what is in that folder if I can.

OK, I see what you mean. I have had a look through my archive and I have a whole set of "extras"
I think these are the ones from photocomix as I have them labled for windows only.

Popping them into my expressions directory, plenty error messages from mathmap, but looks like a lot do work.

I would say keep them in their own folder, make sure they are readable, writable & executable for good measure.



best of luck

Thank you Rich.
I had already found the download, but wasn't sure whether to put in the whole folder or just the files inside. I will put the one with Nadir in it first and see what happens.

EDIT:

I tried to copy the extra-map folder into my usr-share-gimp-2.0-mathmap-expressions folder and I get this message. I did right click properties and made sure I allowed permissions.

Thats because you have mathmap installed in the Gimp global plugins directory,

A few ways of resolving this, try either

Do everything as root or

First unpack the archive to your home directory, then open up your file manager as root
( in a terminal su "root password" then run whatever Fedora uses for a file manager"
and copy to the mathmap plugin folder.

A question, why have mathmap in your global plugins rather that your local plugins?

I don't know Rich.

Mathmap is prepackaged by Fedora so it will be installed globally.

Rich is correct that in order to modify the /usr/share/gimp/2.0/mathmap/expressions folder and its contents, you'll need to login as root.

Gnome's default file manger is nautilus so you'll need to open a terminal and run nautilus as root.

su -
nautilus

Copy or move the files into the appropriate folders.

Thank you Tux.

Every time I type in Nautilus I get this.
