Hi again !
No, unfortunately this is not a release announcment, but rather a question for Mark. I have compiled and built gem-0.79 on linux and folded in the changes for the gemmouse object under Linux (and SGI).
The only problem I have with 0.79 is, that the particle test patch is not working. Now, I donŽt have any idea of the API or something else of the particle system.
Do you have other patches which test the particle system ? BTW. the test program provided by the particle library works ....

Hello,
My name is Christian Guirreri (avid Max user). I'm a Music Technology
major at Radford University and have been on the list for a while - used pd
somewhat successfully on a PC about a year ago, and just recently have
found the time to get back into it again.
Anyway, I can't seem to get Waveout to work - loading it normally it
doesn't find any errors, but I have no sound. When I choose the desired
port manually through command prompt and use verbose, I get the mmsystem
error (ie - waveOutOpen: MMSYSTEM004 The specified device is already in
use. Wait until it is free, and then try again.), which means pd itself is
probably choosing a port I can't really use feasibly when I load it without
the command line settings (I have a virtual audio device loopback installed
that to pd probably appears to be an open port).
Just curious if others have had this problem. I understand that pd on PC
(esp Win9x) is rather buggy, and I don't want to take your time away from
real development on more stable platforms. It really did work about a year
ago though.
I'm using pd0.24 on Win98 with an AWE64, PII-266, 128MB ram, and
driver-wise, have Waveout, Reality wave driver, and 4 virtual audio cables.
Also, I was pleased to see some of the examples at the GEM webpage. Just wondering if anyone is holding an archive of performances and works for download as examples of pd's power.
Thanks, Christian Guirreri cguirrer@runet.edu Music Technologist - Radford University
