I have installed GIMP 2.8.4 on Ubuntu 13.04 (via standard repositories). My problem is I don't see Tools window (the one I used to show/hide with the Tab key). How can I make Tools window appear?

I have this problem as well. Sometimes the tools window is inside another screen.

Shortcut:

Ctrl + B

Try the following.

under the Windows tab click Single Window Mode

if the tools window isn't inside the main window, use the Windows tab again and click Dockable dialogs → Tool options.

If the tools and layer box didn't go inside your main gimp window try toggling the Single Window Mode. This helps sometimes.
