hi, i have just installed Pd on my new linux machine and it works!
i plan on working on eye-candy graphics controlled by sound. my first project is to port bomb (http://draves.org/bomb). after that i will work on a more modular and better intergrated approach to 2D graphics in Pd. in the meantime i have a lot to learn about Pd and GEM. i hope you will tolerate some beginner questions.
i have encountered two glitches so far:
The sound driver thinks my Sound Blaster ISA AWE64 doesn't support duplex IO, contrary to my understanding. Guenter describes a patch for PCI128 cards that sounds like it solves the same problem. Is this the right fix?
When I open 2B_sampler.pd in the doc, i get:
[spot@salvia src]$ pd -adc Pd version 0.24 test pd: opened /dev/dsp in read only mode pd: advance 34, samplerate = 44100, channels = 2 pd: starting engine MIDIlib: Found one MIDI port on /dev/midi00 pd: external fname = ./qsample.pd.pd_linux pd: external fname = /usr/lib/pd/externs/qsample.pd.pd_linux pd: external fname = turn/qsample.pd.pd_linux pd: turn/qsample.pd.pd_linux: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory pd: external fname = ./qgain.pd.pd_linux pd: external fname = /usr/lib/pd/externs/qgain.pd.pd_linux pd: external fname = turn/qgain.pd.pd_linux pd: turn/qgain.pd.pd_linux: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
is that a known bug? i don't know why it's trying to load a qgain object because qgain is just a subpatch...

i tried that, it worx fine for me, although version 0.25TEST 7/8 since the "qgain.pd" ptch is in the same dir as the calling patch, hm ..

i tried 0.25TEST8 (did i say i am using linux, redhat 6?). it didn't have a problem loading this patch, but it was unable to open the audio device at all:

ah, i think i had the sam eproblem when originally installing v 0.25 ... let me think ... ah of course, it seems that redhat keeps /dev/dsp and /dev/dsp1 so you need to make a link -s from dev/dsp to /dev/dsp0 in order for this to work...

this from you rprev msg (refs to dev/dsp):

Yes,
# ln -s /dev/dsp /dev/dsp0
as root fixes the problem.
This is a bug in my linux multichannel/multicard code. On debian the devices are named /dev/dsp0 ... 15 and /dev/dsp is just a link to /dev/dsp0. I will fix that bug in the next test release. But first I'd like to get Miller's latest code merged in (template bugfixes).
Miller, can you put your current sources online ... Maybe we should try to get a final version of 0.25 out ?

ah! i think "TEST" versions are sexier .. %))

No, PCI128 is a completely different card. Which driver are you using ? OSS commercial or kernel drivers ? AFAIK the kernel drivers don't support the full duplex mode.
