Hi. I've just been going through this problem aswell:
pd -rt -lib Gem
and it gives the error:
/usr/lib/pd/extra/Gem.pd_linux: libnvidia-tls.so.1: cannot handle TLS data Gem: can't load library
So it looks like it found the library fine, but it has an issue with the nvidia drivers? Can someone point me in the right direction?
I found a strange solution that worked here: http://imgseek.sourceforge.net/faq.html#faq3. This has been irritating me for a couple of days. I thought I should share this as it was unresolved on this list.
