The machines don't need a ton. I think there are about 4 machines
with empty slots. They won't work with DIMMs bigger than 256MB (they
are old...). The Blue&White G3 might use bigger DIMMs, but I am not
sure.

How much do you need, I'm willing to procure a few gigs from ebay
and send them your way :) I'll check my parents house as well,
they might have 256mb or so sitting around.Let me know. Cheers, ~Brandon

hi Hans and the list,
first i have thought that i could actually send a couple of pc133 sticks over, but here is only a few and in fact i think i'd rather help up with 64ish thing .. i do have machine runnig gentoo on 64-bit athlon, but it actually has pd built manualy with each update and not too many externals to it .. but i think i could set up a weekly cron job or something to actually build a pd binary, may be not all the externals.. but the vanilla source for sure :)
the only thing is that i've said that pd is build manualy each time over here ..i'm not too sure, i wasn't too interested to try and build
the whole set of externals with it ..may be we still could do something for just the sake of making binaries for other people ..Both vanilla and extended auto-builds are completely scripted. I think the 64-bit issues in pd are pretty much worked out. What needs to happen now is to find all of the 64-bit issues with the externals. So having a extended build would be a lot more helpful.
as i'm gentoo based, it's slitghtly different, but still could do .. i had always considered to write a couple of ebuilds and emerge pd just a s normal, but i didn't actyually learn to write them
propertly yet .. but i reckon i can sort that out really ;)Federico has done one:
http://pd-overlay.sourceforge.net/
It would also be useful to have a gentoo nightly build to work out any issues with gentoo, and document its dependencies. There is a wiki page too:

(this should be moved to http://puredata.info/docs/developer/Gentoo IMHO)
