so everything looks fine but when i start pd it hangs for about 20 seconds and then outputs the following errors, then quits.
input channels = 2, output channels = 2 device name hw:0; channels in 2, out 2 audio buffer set to 50 opening sound input... using non-interleaved audio input Sample width set to 4 bytes ALSA: set input channels to 14 ALSA lib pcm_hw.c:324:(snd_pcm_hw_hw_params) SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_HW_PARAMS failed: Device or resource busy snd_pcm_hw_params (input): Device or resource busy pd: pcm.c:4887: snd_pcm_sw_params_current: Assertion `pcm->setup' failed.

"Device or resource busy" errors normally occur, when the sound device is, well, busy i.e. there is nother application using the soundcard. Check with "fuser /dev/snd/pcmC0D0c" or similar.
With Pd however a lot of people have problems using the RME cards directly. You may be luckier if you use Pd over Jack. Otherwise try to not use Pd's default device hw:0 when starting Pd but maybe use plughw:0 first or define a device in your ~/.asoundrc, that matches your favourite setup. Pd 0.37.1test6 now has the "-alsaadd" option to let you specify arbitrary PCM names.
