hallo........
just a quick bug report for the latest revision of Gem which i am running from a debian/powerpc..
Gem compiled without error, and the library loads without error. However it breaks pd whenever i try to create a window using gemwin (Segmentation Fault), it also seg-faults when i try to load the model example patch before even loading the patch window (tho this example may have a loadbang on a gemwin?). Not all the gem objects seem to be broken as i have been able to successfully load qt+mpeg films into both pix_movie and pix_film.
has anyone else run into this problem and is it possible
that i am missing an important display library or could it
just be a problem with the powerpc architecture?

Hi,
Funny you mention this... I had the same prob with the older (0.86?) version. Didn't get around to compile the latest (missing mpeg3 lib - where can I find it?). And I'm on debian/ppc as well (iMac 128M ram kernel 2.4.18).
So did you experience the same behaviour with any previous version? Or is it the first time?

unfortunately i have no experience with the powerpc....

no surely it does not have a loadbang. but the [model] automatically tries to load model-data from venus.obj (and venus.mtl) this might be related to your problem. you have to edit line 15 in the model.pd file. just remove the expression "venus.obj" --- and tell me what is happening.
can you open the model with any other program ? a good idea would be to compile the glut-example that comes with glut-doc and on which the Gem-code is based. you should find it in /usr/share/doc/glut-doc/examples/progs/demos/smooth

how did you do this, when not being able to create a Gem-window ?
has anyone else run into this problem and is it possible that i am missing an important display library or could it just be a problem with the powerpc architecture?
again, i am sorry that i have no experience with powerpcs. do other openGl-programs work ? (my first tests are always with the openGL-screensavers; later comes blender)
