OK Googled on crop and Krita and found that it needs a double click to 
complete the crop. Easy but not intuitive for a Gimp user. 

Now when I try to import a 15 x 12 inch pdf file and set the resolution 
at 600 it loads dead slowly and sometimes crashes. I am using 2.0.2 on 
Slackware Linux 13.0. Upgrading Krita means upgrading all of KDE and 
that is so much work that it is easier just to install a new distro 
somewhere on a spare partition. So what is recommended as a recent, 
more or less crash proof Krita and what distro has it?
