This RPM that you speak of, is it similar to HC's installers for mac and window$. i mean with core externals and gem built in. that would be fantastic. cheers....i heard that gem had some trouble with mandrake, but that could be old news. tom
H.C. Steiner has been harassing me for a while for that RPM. I do have a 0.37 rpm for Mandrake 9.1, that I built last week. I intend to upload it to the CVS before the end of the month (soon) In the meanwhile, get ready by following these advices:
- If you have a fast internet connection, configure urpmi with this: http://plf.zarb.org/~nanardon/
- Don't recompile your kernel unless you need some feature not available, and install the multimedia kernel from the "contrib" source.
- Don't install tcl/tk 8.4, stick to 8.3
- Install jackit-realtime 0.81 from the "thac" source

I started to work on it today. There will be several packages. A "vanilla" PD rpm, plus many rpms for externals. I basically try to compile as much externals as I can from the CVS, including Gem. I can't garantee that these packages will work with a standard Mandrake 9.1 installation; some other packages from exotic sources might be required. -- Marc

Hi Marc, will you only work for MDK 9.1, because 9.2 is on now and it's really stable with a lot of audio features. I think your pd's rpm could be suitable in the audio's rpm packages contribs of mandrake 9.2!!! Also, my advice to switch to 9.2 is simply do it!! there's multimédia kernel...

Hi Julien
Mandrake 9.2 is not ready for me; there's plenty of contrib packages that are not yet available. Mandrake 9.1 also has a multimedia kernel in the contrib section. I'll switch to 9.2 in a couple of months. I'm not even sure how I will distribute the external package, because to enable many features, some "grey zone" rpms from plf and/or thac must me installed.
It's also a lot of work to try, debug and patch some externals in the CVS. So don't expect the package until a few time.
In the meanwhile, you should try the packages from Thac's repository: http://rpm.nyvalls.se/sound9.1.html
You other option is to compile srpms for pd 0.36 from planet ccrma: http://ccrma-www.stanford.edu/planetccrma/software/soundapps.html
