Hi I finally managed to compile pd and it at least opens(thanks to Norbert Math and Miller Puckette) Now my problem is that when I press in the help menu "test audio and midi" and then I press in "test tone" I hear cracks and pops all the time (I think I should hear a sine wave tone). The pan or balance works.
First I thougt there was a problem with my driver. I use an alsa driver with a creative soundblaster 512 pci card. 'alsaconf' detects a soundblaster live!, and I think its ok cause it has the same chipset as mine (I'm not totally sure). When alsaconf plays a sound sample (the one I hear when I open linux) I hear it with cracks and pops too. The point is that I don't have that problem with other applications (such as mp3 and Cd players) or even when I hear the same sample opening linux !! What should I do?
thanks:

try different values for -frags and -fragsize options when starting pd and see if the problem goes away.
