Hey Devs,
I've found a bug, doubtless someone here knows what's going on - I've got pd-0.39-2extended on my linux box running 2.6.15-4rt kernel/alsa/jack. I start jack, fine, start pd, loads & works fine, but if I close & restart pd more than 3 times, pd won't load correctly anymore unless I reboot my machine. Pd window will open, command line reads:
normally, I see this (pd working correctly):
Pd version 0.39-2extended-test1
compiled 23:27:31 Feb 26 2006
port 5401
TCL_LIBRARY="/usr/local/lib/pd/tcl/library" TK_LIBRARY="/usr/local/lib/pd/tk/library" "/usr/local/lib/pd/bin/pd-gui" 5401
Waiting for connection request...
... connected
device 2: tried /dev/midi02 READ/WRITE; returned -1
device 2: tried /dev/midi2 READ/WRITE; returned 5
I quit, then reload, the quit, then reload, and I notice that this time pd didn't actually quit - although the window is closed, the bash shell isn't freed. Then if I restart pd, I see this:
Pd version 0.39-2extended-test1
compiled 23:27:31 Feb 26 2006
port 5408
TCL_LIBRARY="/usr/local/lib/pd/tcl/library" TK_LIBRARY="/usr/local/lib/pd/tk/library" "/usr/local/lib/pd/bin/pd-gui" 5408
Waiting for connection request...
... connected
device 2: tried /dev/midi02 READ/WRITE; returned -1
and the Pd window will open, but the Windows and Media menus are not populated, & I can't open any files. pstree reveals 2 running pd & pd-gui processes. sudo killall pd; sudo killall pd-gui isn't effective in killing them.
What's going on here? Why is pd not quitting completely? Additionally, sometimes pd will cause the jack server to stop unexpectedly.
Hopefully this is a known issue & I've just done something blockheaded here....
Thanks,
David
