Is it possible to use pdp/pidip with a non-accelerated, shared memory graphics card?
The only way PDP would use accelerated graphics is if you used the [pdp_glx] window. Otherwise, it all gets rendered in the CPU anyway. Accelerated graphics only gets used in PD by GEM/OpenGL, AFAIK. Put a sock in my mouth if this in untrue ;-)
My suggestion is with Frank. Start with Ubuntu, then add some new Debian sources to /etc/apt/sources.list like:
deb http://snapshot.debian.net/archive/2005/11/11/debian/ testing main contrib non-free
deb http://sindominio.net/~caedes/debian/ unstable main deb ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat/ unstable main
then:
apt-get update
apt-get install pd-pdp pd-pidip pd-gem2pdp pd-unauthorized gem
And see if that helps.
