Anyway, when typing 'pd' on the command line I get this: pd: error while loading shared libraries: libportaudio.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
a few possibilities:
#0 refresh your ldcache
# ldconfig
puredata should have installed all apropriate libraries, but the new
libraries might not yet be known to your system.
ldconfig should do the trick (alternatively rebooting will do as well)
#1 properly install portaudio as shipped with Pd (and Pd): since it seems that you have pd in your PATH, i guess you already installed Pd with something like: # make install if this did not install portaudio, run the following: # make -C portaudio install
#2 disable portaudio: $ ./configure --without-portaudio personally, that's my preferred way, as i don't really see the point of portaudio (on linux) when Pd supports jack and alsa and oss.
#3 install portaudio from Debian # aptitude install libportaudio2 (this will install another version of portaudio as the one you compiled Pd against (you compiled against the one Pd ships with, and now you are linking against the one debian ships with; according to the .so-names this should not be a problem)
since i now read that you managed to get it running by rebooting Pd, i guess the correct solution was #0.
