All that said, when you're serious about photography and raw you should seriously get away from Linux and The Gimp.

That is certainly one alternative. But perhaps not the best.

nospam
it is if one wants better results with less hassle.

Learning how to use Linux and GIMP might not be possible for some people, but it can be a superior choice for others.

only for those not interested or incapable of using more capable software.

had the original poster been using camera raw, he would not have had any problems with minolta/sony or any other raw file, and he would also benefit from a fully non-destructive workflow, something not possible with the gimp/ufraw.

Alternatively, he could have obtained the same benefits by using DxO. --
