** [bugs:#1147] Puredata and sudo not starting UI.**
**Status:** open **Group:** v0.43 **Created:** Mon Jun 09, 2014 08:35 PM UTC by Anonymous **Last Updated:** Mon Jun 09, 2014 08:35 PM UTC **Owner:** nobody
pd is not starting the UI, if started via "sudo -u XX puredata". The problem seems to be that puredata tries to read configuration files from HOME/, which are then not accessible and thus startup stops.
What works is:
sudo -u XX bash
export HOME=/tmp puredata
Sound devices are opened in both cases.
