Greetings:
Okay, I now have PD working again, complete with sound, and it's great. However, I can't get GEM loaded to save my soul. Here's what I do & get :
[dlphilp@localhost bin]$ ./pd -frags 128 -lib /home/dlphilp/gem-0.84/Gem.pd_linux successfully opened /dev/dsp write-only successfully reopened /dev/dsp read/write OSS: Could not set fragment size /home/dlphilp/gem-0.84/Gem.pd_linux: can't load library
I use the -frags setting in order to avoid DIO errors. I'm using the ALSA 0.5.9b driver for my SBLive, if that makes a difference. PD doesn't seem to mind whatever I set frags to, and the audio output is nice and smooth.
So how do I go about finding what's wrong with my GEM object ?

I've been trying to get PD + GEM working under Linux, but I'm having poor luck at it. I got a great headache trying to compile it (either MP's or GG's version) until I realized that it didn't like my Tcl\Tk 8.0 installation, so I upgraded to 8.3 and PD now compiles without complaint.
So then I installed it, according to the instructions in the makefile, to the /usr/local hierarchy. But when I try running it I get this:
[dlphilp@localhost src]$ pd -rt successfully opened /dev/dsp write-only successfully reopened /dev/dsp read/write priority 96 scheduling enabled. memory locking enabled. priority 98 scheduling enabled. memory locking enabled. sh: ./bin/pd-watchdog: No such file or directory sh: ./bin/pd-gui: No such file or directory Pd: signal 2
I assumed the install would place everything where needed. My bad. So where does everything need to be in order for PD to find it ? Or what other info do you need to help me debug this situation ?
I've successfully compiled Gem 0.84 but since I haven't yet got PD working I don't know if this version will work with PD. If anyone else is using PD + GEM under Linux, please let me know if there are any tips on getting this show working. I'm anxious to see the combination in action... :)
