Quoting jack@rybn.org:
I have installed PureData 0.42.5, last GEM from SVN and ATI driver Catalyst for the Radeon HD 5770 and the acceleration is OK. When i was using 'dialog' message, i can't remember what i got.
well, "dialog" will only give you something meaningfull, if the used
backend will provide a dialog-window.
read: on w32 and osx, you should get a dialog, whereas on linux you
will get none, as the backends (e.g. v4l2) don't know anything about
GUI but are rather concentrating on the grabbing.
