Hi All, Thanks for the info.. What I am trying to do is run PD under win98/95 Beacuse I need to run it alongside another app I have written in C++ DirectX and I need to do this using a laptop.. So obviously I need to have a laptop with reasonable directx graphics compatibility and fast enought to run pd (for both audio and midi).. So I am after anybodies experience of using audio/midi cards interfaces for laptops under win95/98 (thinking of the wami or the pocket 7) ....I need to purchase the kit.. but theres obviously no point if my patches/app wont run on it! Thanks again Tom ________________________________________________________ C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT C:\REM [Header] C:\> C:\>PATH=C:\PERL\BIN;C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND;\C:jdk1.2.2\bin ________________________________________________________ http://www.nullpointer.co.uk (all suffixes enabled) -----Original Message----- From: HENRY Damien <damien_henry(a)libertysurf.fr> To: nullpointer <nullpointer(a)odessadesign.co.uk>; pd-list(a)iem.kug.ac.at <pd-list(a)iem.kug.ac.at> Date: 10 April 2001 20:33 Subject: Re: Laptop setups? >> Has anyone used a mobile laptop setup for pd performances? >> If so could people let me know the spec for such a setup and what audio >> cards work? > >A standart COMPAQ ARMADA with NT4.0 work very well with good performance >(PIII 750;256Mo RAM) >I use the poor quality sandart sound card :-( but i'll try soon the VXPocket >:-) > >I haven't find a midi interface that has driver for NT4.0. >If somebody have any idea/ experience about it, please tell me. > > > >

pure-data.org
by jfm3 11 Apr '01

11 Apr '01

I think I'm done updating the FAQ at www.pure-data.org. If I updated something that you wrote, I probably sent you an email. Just about all the important packages have had an updates since the last time I went through them all. I also found gemee, which Guenter hadn't announced here yet. Now maybe I will have time to sit down and play with the new features in 32.5. As always, if you're stuff is mentioned on pure-data.org and you get a chance, make sure I've got correct and current information up there. If you're stuff isn't mentioned on pure-data.org, bug me and I'll put it up. I still haven't figured out enough about Joseph Sarlo's Pd objects to enter them yet, but maybe tomorrow. I am planning on doing RPMs of all the software listed at pure-data.org. This is on hold until RedHat 7.1 comes out of beta. If anyone would like to do similar packaging for win32 systems, let me know and I'll put your packages up too. Thanks for being cool. (jfm3)

a bug in rtext_key()?
by Krzysztof Czaja 11 Apr '01

11 Apr '01

Hi, I am more of a casual user then Pd expert, and what follows could be just plainly wrong... The symptoms: while editing text in object/message boxes I often experienced (what seems to be) a buggy behaviour -- the apparent bug is usually only annoying, but it is also capable of forcing Pd to crash. The remedy (attached): a small patch over rtext_key() of g_rtext.c. Now the question: am I supposed to report such findings through pd-list, directly to the author, or anywhere else? Best to you all, Krzysztof Czaja --- g_rtext.c Mon Oct 2 00:38:38 2000 +++ ../patched/g_rtext.c Sun Apr 8 18:00:13 2001 @@ -390,8 +390,10 @@ ndel = x->x_selend - x->x_selstart; for (i = x->x_selend; i < x->x_bufsize; i++) x->x_buf[i- ndel] = x->x_buf[i]; - newsize = x->x_bufsize - ndel; + newsize = x->x_bufsize - ndel; // because of the bug below newsize may be -1 + // int newsize passed to size_t formal argument... x->x_buf = resizebytes(x->x_buf, x->x_bufsize, newsize); + // ... and after passing negative newsize we get x->x_buf nulled x->x_bufsize = newsize; if (n == '\n' || isprint(n)) @@ -407,16 +409,16 @@ x->x_selend = x->x_selstart; x->x_glist->gl_editor->e_textdirty = 1; } - else if (!strcmp(keysym->s_name, "Right")) + else if (!strcmp(keysym->s_name, "Right")) // -> { - if (x->x_selend == x->x_selstart) + if (x->x_selend == x->x_selstart && x->x_selend < x->x_bufsize) x->x_selend = x->x_selstart = x->x_selstart + 1; else x->x_selstart = x->x_selend; } - else if (!strcmp(keysym->s_name, "Left")) + else if (!strcmp(keysym->s_name, "Left")) // <- { - if (x->x_selend == x->x_selstart && x->x_selend < x->x_bufsize - 1) + if (x->x_selend == x->x_selstart && x->x_selend > 0) x->x_selend = x->x_selstart = x->x_selstart - 1; else x->x_selend = x->x_selstart;

serious problem
by jfm3 11 Apr '01

11 Apr '01

There is still a serious problem in Pd that I have seen since 0.32.1, which is that the qlist code is under a non-free license. I hope we can get this fixed as soon as possible. Luckily, I have a patch: change these lines from the top of x_qlist.c to look like the rest of the source files: Copyright 1997-1998 Regents of the University of California. Permission is granted to use this software for any noncommercial purpose. For commercial licensing contact the UCSD Technology Transfer Office. (jfm3)

Hardisc recording/playing and linux 2.4.2
by Linium 05 Apr '01

05 Apr '01

Hello, I would like to inform people interested in playing/recording large audio files with pd that the linux kernel 2.4.2 I am testing now reveals itself far "superior". I have been able to play 20 monos track (6 minutes) without glitches with the standard readsf~ object. This number is not an actual limitation, but a simple test i did. I havn't yet applyed the low latency patch which should improve things again. This is good news I hope for any PDers. Linium
