hi, may I join you in that discussion? I understand now that the Gem package in the pd-extended is built for nvidia support and does not run without a nvidia card. correct? But what I want to know is, (I don't know so much about configure scripting..) when I build my own Gem and have NO nvidia card, will I have to type --disable-NV? that would not make sense to me... I would like to compile my Gem later today. so thnx for answers. marius.
i might be wrong, but as far as i understand the idea of a configure script, it is here, to check if all libraries are installed, that are needed to run the binary, that you are going to compile, also where
they are, and also if some optional libraries are there, which may improve the functionality of your binary to compile. if a certain optional funcionality is non-existent on your computer (e.g. nvidia extension), ./configure should automatically disable it, when
generating the makefile. if the configure doesn't print errors, you can expect, that the binary you are going to compile will work (at least on your system).in your case, when you execute ./configure, it should print something like:
using NV-extensions : nothat means, you don't need to add the flag '--disable-NV' to
configure.i hope i could help
