I need some advise on how to do something in Suse 10.0. I know how to
do it in Windows, but not in Linux.

I have a google maps web page showing our property, which is 23
acres. I want to do a screen capture, (printing to a file does not
print the graphics in either opera or firefox) pull it into a
graphics editor and do an outline drawing like you can do in
Micrografix. I then want to add some things like where the water
lines are along with their turnoffs and where the buried electrical
lines are.

Most browsers can save images they're displaying separately and / or
copy the URL used to retrieve that image to the clipboard so you can
download it using curl or wget. In Mozilla and Firefox, both these
functions are available via the context menu--right-click on the image
to display that menu, which includes the commands "Copy Image Location"
and "Save Image As...".

From there, there are several image editing applications you could use
to add the overlays you need. Gimp is the high end, of course, being
comparable to Photoshop.


Any suggestions on how to do this in Linux?
