When you start PD you only get the conole and no PD window?
well, the console is in the pd window
what does gdb pd in terminal do? Same thing?
If you get a crash you'll see (gdb) in the terminal. type "where" to see where it was when it crashed.
ok, will try that
Did you try compiling Miller's PD from source? Does it act any differently?
no, same thing
thanks anyway, Matthias
B.
More specifically when does it happen?
as I said, occasionally, but always when I start pd.
What version of PD are you using? from the deb package that comes with sarge
Could it be an external running?
as it occurs when I start pd, there is just the pd console, nothing else
What is running in the panel? (My panels are simple with icons, stickies and cpu monitor.
just drawers, a clock, the desktop switcher
