hi list,
i first thought on making the tutorial/manual only for windows, but as the chapter-C will cover the usage of Pd (will be huge) and that is allmost 100% compatible with any OS, so i thought i make the install and launch chapter also for linux and osx.
for starters, i could use some help on defining the "minimum requirements" for Pd. please correct these points where you can:
Microsoft Windows
- Windows 98 (i don't think we need to mention win95)
- 300 Mhz (if someone can test this, let me know if it's too slow)
- 64 mb ram (should be enough)
I think, even 32 MB is enough, at least on Linux.
- 20 mb free on harddisk (maybe we could spare this point)
- TCP/IP Protocol
- Audio card (optional: for audio input/output)
- MIDI card/device (optional: for MIDI input/output)
- OpenGl compatible graphic card (optional: for GEM)
- Video card/device (optional: for GEM, video input/output)
well, it's not quite logical to mention that multimedia devices are "optional" for Pd, but you can use Pd for "normal" programming too... GNU/Linux
- hardware same as windows ?
- depencies ?
- gcc version ?
- kernel issues ?
- ?
Make that for Linux:
Hardware could be less on Linux, as it can generally be configured more lean.
X-Server (Xfree86) (optional, but highly recommended) Tcl/Tk (dito)
ciao
