It seems that only Floyd has kept the original poster's question in mind. The poster didn't ask what OS or what software would be an improvement on what he has. He asked what can be done to work with what he has.
Floyd - presumably - did a good job in answering this. I say "presumably" because I use neither Linux nor Gimp and don't know how practical Floyd's response was.
It's too bad that questions like the original poster's get diverted into battles over OS and software with the same old points being rehashed over-and-over. Nothing new was brought up.

I replied to the OP and I pointed out that the UFRaw settings that were displayed looked a bit off to me, and one in particular (WB) was suspicious. I told the OP to make some adjustments to get (closer) to a baseline position. Since I no longer have the Gimp (or Linux) installed, I didn't take it further to test the settings that he had.
He did not reply to that - so I wonder:
1) Were we trolled? (Again).
2) Who's the troll? (And I have my suspicions).No trolling here. Using helpful pointers from others, I have been working with adjustments to UFRaw and have gotten closer to a reasonable picture, while at the same time discovering that the software build I am using may have some problems compared to a later release. Alan, if I didn't reply directly to your post, it may be that it got missed in all the noise! Sorry about that. I do try to follow up to, or acknowledge the help of others. I've been away today and only just started to go through the many posts to this group.
