|OK, this suggestion about the DISPLAY variable worked fine (it required the |localhost:0 option. thanks Dieter!). Now PD starts up and I get a new error |message: Audio I/O stuck and then it shuts down, usually leaving a window in |gnome which must be "annihilated". Starting with the -nosound option seems to |make no difference. Still doesn't work, although PD seems to make it much |farther through the initialization routine now. Audio and midi both work under |x-windows with other programs. Is this something to do with the frag option?
you either have soundcrd which needs frag/fragsize option set or somethings wrong with your /dev/dsp* entries a la dsp0 instead dsp oder no permissions .. $ chmod a+rw /dev/dsp?
?
from here to there its not long enough but from here to here its too short. [cpt.bh]
