Yes!!!!
I've found a *lot* of strange problems with PD running under 98/95 and ME. I have has that specific problem with subpatches exactly. Also I could not get the expr object to work on ME and then all of a sudden one day it did. Works great on win2k and linux though. I'll have to double check but I think its works as well in XP as 2000.
I use 2000 at home, but tried to use PD under 98 at school. Any reason why you have to use 98 on the laptop?
I'm runing PD.35 and GEM .86 using NVidia drivers under linux and blackbox. So I get video out without window decorations (I turn them off in blackbox) the only problem was getting sound drivers to work!!! (just stay away from redhat)

I'm experiencing weird behaviour on a win98(se) laptop.
I have pd 0.34 running in the same set-up as my win2k machine, that is with zexy, gem, iemlib, etc., with virtually no problem at all except for the following: if I double-click or control-click a pd object to see a subpatch, PD crashes automatically. I have tried with a brand new install of the most recent version of PD, with no libraries and I'm always getting the same problem.
Does anyone have a clue why this is happening, or experienced similar problems? I'm a bit puzzled as to why this only happens with the pd object, especially considering that everything else is working as expected.
Thanks!
