Thanks for the info Hans. Ill try that out. With the version I have now has pd-gui. Where the latest puredata and pd-extende used wish instead. I think the problems were with wish probably because it was jumpin around in the process list like crazy. The pd extended was the latest autobuild, I tried last night. I might have had remnants of another system in place before installing which might have caused some problems. I installed the dev package to compile ggee which seems to be working fine .
Have you tried any Pd-extended 0.43 builds in the past week or two? There have been some key bug fixes recently.
As for trying a .deb without installing, you can extract the .deb and run it in place, something like:
mkdir /tmp/pd-extended
dpkg -x pd-extended.deb /tmp/pd-extended
cd /tmp/pd-extended/usr/bin
./pd-extended

I tried the latest autobuild of extended as well as the 0.43 vanilla from sourceforge. both installed fine withh Ubuntu software center. they both kept freezing though sometimes it was a toggle tat would freeze it's display or I couldn't get any sound or close dialog after setting audio properties. most of the time stopping and restarting process worked to unfreeze but I had to uninstall them both and put back the version that ubuntu provides. I figured midi start, stop and continue would work with qtractor but it doesn't with any of them so it might bean alsa or qtractor thing. qtractor does sync with jack transpot though. Anywhere I can find extended package deb that doesn't require me to uninstall whats on there ?
