Hi!
I'm trying to install pd-extended 0.41.4 on an Asus Eee PC running Xandros Linux (derived, I believe, from Debian etch). I used to have an earlier version of pd (0.39.2-4) installed, but would like to install pd-extended.
I downloaded the package 'Pd-0.41.4-extended-debian-etch-i386.deb' and tried to install it, but I'm getting the following error message:
"The following packages have unmet dependencies: pd-extended: depends on liblame0 (>= 3.97)"
I searched the archive and found several messages about this missing package and another one that's supposed to replace it, but I still not sure what to do. I downloaded 'liblame0_3.97-0.0_i386.deb' and tried to install it, but I just got this message:
"Cannot install package liblame0_3.97-0.0_i386.deb. Please, check your installation and try again."
What do I do now? I can go back to the older version of pd, but I'd rather not.
Thanks.

liblame is non-free because of patent issues in some countries, that's why its not included in Debian. You can download that package from a country that does not have the patent issue here:
If you live in a country where the MP3 patent is valid, then you are legally required to have a license to use code that works with MP3s.

Thanks. As I said, I did download a package that was supposed to be the required version of lame, but I wasn't able to install it. I'll try this one, though; it seems to be a different version of the package (the name is different, anyway). I couldn't care less about the patent issue, I'm not even interested in making mp3 files, I just want to install it because it seems to be required by pd-extended.

Hi David,
I have an ASUS EeePc (1000HD) myself and i think on the longer term the best you can do is that you switch over Xandros linux to more popular, thus more developed one. There are two Ubuntu variants out there tuned for the eee, Eeebuntu is my favorite (but i read it will be discontinued as an EeeePc OS), and Easypeasy, then there is the official Ubuntu Notebook remix and people have good results with plain Ubuntu as well (optionally with Array.org kernel).
