Environment Used - Ubuntu 12.04 - Gimp - Software Center - Ubuntu Pricise Pangolin (12.04) Procedure Instalation I like using Gimp since I can't find Phosothop on Ubuntu.

Add PPA by run command below sudo add-apt-repository ppa:otto-kesselgulasch/gimp 3. Update repository sudo apt-get update 4. Install gimp sudo apt-get install gimp 5. Open Gimp 6. To set single window, go to Window -> single window

Right click on Computer then select 'properties' 3. Choose 'Advanced System settings' 4. Click on Environment Variables... butt
