The text sticking out of the boxes is usually caused by Tcl/Tk 8.5:

The pidip error is really just a warning. I think you can set a font
then it'll work. Otherwise, check out the source files for the two
text objects, you'll see the default location is:
imlib_add_path_to_font_path("/var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/ TrueType");

base64 problem solved. The package tcllib was needed. The only prblems left are with pdip not finding the fonts and with the text sticking out of the object boxes.

in the terminal:can't find package base64

that it was much less effort than when I did it on OpenSuse 11. I only
had to hack one of the make files (the one for tclpd). Now the problems I'm having are:PiDiP : additional video processing objects for PDP version 0.12.23 ( ydegoyon@free.fr ) error: [pdp_text] error: could not load default font, no text
rendering! install Bitstream Vera, it's free! (http://www.gnome.org/fonts/ ) error: [pdp_qtext] error: could not load default font, no text
rendering! install Bitstream Vera, it's free! (http://www.gnome.org/fonts/ )I have Bitstream Vera installed in /usr/share/fonts/truetype, do I have to copy them somewhere else?
Also the font in in the pd gui is too big so the text entered inside the objects doesn't fit inside the object boxes.
Once I have this things sorted out I will post in the pd wiki a
short review about building pd in OpenSuse including a list of required packages.Cheers,

I don't know SUSE at all, so I won't set it up, but I am happy to
help someone else get the builds running on a SUSE machine. Do you
have one to offer? It doesn't need to be fast, just working. Most of the
build farm are 733Mhz machines from '98, for example. :) Also, it would be
good if you documented the build process on the wiki so others can follow it:http://puredata.info/docs/developer/FrontPage/createform?page=SUSE
You can see the Debian or Fedora page for an example:
http://puredata.info/docs/developer/Debian http://puredata.info/docs/developer/Fedora
As for a source tarball, I haven't made one... but you can get
the whole thing from svn easily enough:svn co https://pure-data.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/pure-data/branches/pd-extended...

Is there a URL for downloading this version's source? I'm using OpenSuse 11.1 so I have to build it from scratch. By the way, does anyone know about an OpenSuse repository for PD? Probably there
are not enough resources already but is there any chance of including OpenSuse in the building farms?Cheers,
Hector
