Hi Cera,
please note the remote X11 forwarding post I just sent out. I think it might be useful for you to administrate PD running on a server.
However, if you compile PD thusly:
cera wrote:
$ ./configure --without-X --without-tcl
you will not be able to use the remote X11 over SSH because it relies on the X display of the Remote machine (i.e. the server). Of course, there are other ways of doing it (stop PD, make a new patch and SCP that to the running server and then start PD with "-nogui" and "-open $FILENAME" flags, for example).
So, it might be a good idea to approach the administator of your server and ask if it's possible to install TCL, TK and X for your use.
best, derek
