Dear all,
I switched operating systems to Fedora 13 yesterday and it is great, except that I cannot get Pd to address ALSA. The build goes well, no errors, and Pd is there and it looks fine, except when I go to 'Audio settings' the boxes next to input and output are empty. There are no options to select. I have installed every ALSA package that I can find, and still no joy. Any ideas? This is a sample what the console reports during configuration:
checking tcl.h usability... yes checking tcl.h presence... yes checking for tcl.h... yes checking for main in -ltcl85... no checking for main in -ltcl8.5... yes checking for main in -ltk85... no checking for main in -ltk8.5... yes .................... alsa= yes
I find the '....................' before alsa to be troubling.
Anyone know how to fix this?
Best, David Medine
I just compiled Pd in fedora 13 and alsa worked immediately. What soundcard are you using?

Hi
Thank you to everyone who helped out with my OSC sampler that takes OSC messages from an Organic Motion markerless motion capture stage being run by Jmonkey engine. It requires Nslam xjimmies & LyonPotpourri and Grain2.0 by Bill Orcutt. Let me know if anyone wants to Czech it out and I'll zip it up w/o sound files. It will be a part of a conference at Emily Carr University in British Columbia next week. I love when I can spend two weeks on the job using pd!
Cheers~

per default, Pd uses OSS. you have to manually tell it to use ALSA. Menu->Media->ALSA
or start Pd with "-alsa".
then the audio-menu should list your soundcards (that is: if you have any; can other (alsa) applications play sound?)
