Re: Crikey HID-based virtual keyboard 1.0 release

Sigh. That explains the lack of response, I suppose?

usb2 tv tuner stick on intel mac
by wolfgang schwarzenbrunner 17 Oct '06

17 Oct '06

hi... i was just wondering if maybe someone has experience accessing usb tv tuner sticks with pix_videoDarwin on intel macs. a view days ago i was testing this really neat device. http://macuk.terratec.net/modules.php?op=modload&name=News&file=article&sid… i think on osx it was not even recognised by gem. after booting to xp pix_video found it but said that "graph playback" couldn`t be initiated. so -- its not really important -- but if anyone has a suggestion for some standard devices which should work on intel mac osx (and no expensive firewire analog - digital converters) please let me know... regards wolfgang

Problem with command line args on pd 0.40-1 on OSX
by Mike Wozniewski 16 Oct '06

16 Oct '06

We are having a problem with pd version 0.40-1 on OSX 10.4.6 (with Tcl/Tk version is 8.4.7) Particularly, no command line arguments are parsed, including -path, -open, -lib, etc. "./pd -version" does however work. And pd works in general. Has anyone experienced similar problems?, or would anyone know where to look to fix this problem? Thanks, Mike

Re: [PD] pduino/comport w/ arduino freezes keyboard and trackpad on Macbook
by nick weldin 16 Oct '06

If drawing to much power from the usb socket is the problem then you need to provide power for the arduino either by going through a powered hub, or if you are drawing to much power on the arduino to run it off usb switch the power jumper over on the board and provide power for the electronics on it seperately, rather than drawing it from the usb bus.

re: [PD] Version 0.40-0test05 on XP (patch that crashes)
by Miller Puckette 16 Oct '06

16 Oct '06

> hi > this crashes on XP > vh/ Steffen Thanks for the excellent patch... it does indeed crash on XP and not on linux. The culprits are the "append", "getsize" "setsize" and "element" help windows which used the obsolete "template" object - I replaced them with "struct" objects and things ran ( patches per second) for 1/2 hour or so. However, I doubt that's the only problem out there, I think there's a more serious one... cheers Miller

pduino/comport w/ arduino freezes keyboard and trackpad on Macbook
by David NG McCallum 16 Oct '06

16 Oct '06

Howdy all, I tried using pduino today, and when I specify the arduino board as a device for the comport object (devicename /dev/cu.usbserial-#####), I lose complete control of my keyboard and trackpad (on a Macbook). I can use the power button on the computer to start a shutdown, and when Pd's closed, I regain control. Ideas? D! -- __ _ _ _ __ _ http://sintheta.org

[Gem] performance issues on linux/ubuntu/fglrx
by Roman Haefeli 16 Oct '06

16 Oct '06

hi all i encountered an issue with gem-performance on linux, at least on my ubuntu-system with fglrx-drivers. it seemed to me that when doing some stuff with gem, it takes more cpu than one would expect according to the measurements of fgl_glxgears. of course this is not a serious way of doing a comparison. that is, why i made a (attached) patch, that does exactly the same thing twice, on the left side using gem, on the right side using 3dp. on my computer, the gem-side uses about 30%, which seems a lot for such a simple patch, whereas with 3dp no additional cpu-load is recognizable. also, i don't have any performance problems with gem on windows (the same patch uses 10x less cpu on windows than on ubuntu). the specs: ubuntu dapper xorg 7.0.0 with fglrx-driver pd-0.40.0 gem: cvs-checkout from 2 months ago (i am not able to compile it right now: ... g++ -c -g -O2 -fPIC -freg-struct-return -O3 -falign-loops=16 -funroll-loops -ffast-math -mmmx -I/usr/include/ffmpeg -I/usr/include/lqt -I/usr/include/lqt -I/usr/include/avifile-0.7 -I/usr/include/freetype2 -I.. -I/usr/include/FTGL -I/usr/include/freetype2 GemEvent.cpp -o GemEvent.o /usr/local/include/GL/glext.h:3129: error: âuintâ has not been declared /usr/local/include/GL/glext.h:3323: error: âbooleanâ has not been declared /usr/local/include/GL/glext.h:3337: error: expected initializer before âexternâ make[1]: *** [GemBase.o] Error 1 make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/roman/pd-cvs/gridflow-0.8.4/Gem/src/Base' make: *** [Base] Error 2 ) i have no clue, if: -it is an issue of gem -it is an issue of fglrx (though it works fine with 3dp) -i just should live with that. -more info is needed to track this down. any hints appreciated. cheers roman
