Dear Pure datums,

Maybe I'm too dumb, but I am not getting _any_ success whatsoever with compiling on a Linux box.

It seems that the makefile.dependencies hates me, the gcc-lib/i486-linux/2.7.2.3 is hardwired, I have only 2.7.2.1. So either new kernel, or what? Is the patch number that important?

It also seems that there are a lot of includes that I just do not possess, /usr/include/gnu/stubs.h and more. Where can I find these?

I have also in a flight of bravery (yeah, okay, stoopidity) installed the newest (alpha) release of Tcl/Tk, am I setting myself up for more trouble? I didn't realise until I had downloaded the whole 5 meg compressed. BTW the tests didn't work, is this usual??? :-)

Feeling completely brave I installed in a Win95 machine too, PD worked but GEM will not start, attempting to start with c:/Programme/blah/pd -lib /Programme/blah/gem/Gem and all other possible variations leads to pd: /Programme/blah/gem/Gem.dll: couldn't load

Any ideas? I'm a big Max user, and I would like to try to move over to PD/Gem so as to be able to look at the details (via linux) and to use the machines here for something useful. I'd like to get this to work.

I hope someone can enlightenme soon,

cheers!
