hello
i'm trying to make a gem package for gentoo GNU/Linux distribution.
compiling it following instructions in src/Gnu/README.build was no problem. but on ftp there were some more packages, which i dont know what to do with. they ain't mentioned in the README.build, but it seems (i tried some examples) they are quite useful. to make a package i'd rather know in what order should i build these other packages [and what are there, where they came from etc]. i also read in the mailing list archive about libmpeg3 dependancy, it isn't mentioned in the document either.
i have pd/gem installed on my debian machine and there they work absolutelly perfect (but they are older versions also). on gentoo machine gem generates lots of errors and sometimes "misbehaves". example:
============================================================ reading startup file: /home/buggs/.pdrc GEM: Mark Danks GEM: ver: 0.84-5 GEM: compiled: Aug 11 2002
here i open a patch (red square) then click on create
error: GEM: Unable to create single buffer window error: GEM: Error creating const context error: GEM: A serious error occured creating const Context error: GEM: Do not continue! GEM: window created
i click 1
GEM: Start rendering
everything seems to work alright then i click 0
GEM: Stop rendering
and finaly destroy...
Segmentation fault pd_gui: pd process exited
hmmm.... seems it understood me literally :)
============================================================
pd/gem segfaults every time i do destroy and complains about creating single buffer window and context. i have a feeling this two are related...
do simptoms look familiar to anybody?
thanks.
hi artm
experience exactly the same symptoms with gem-0.87 on my own gentoo 1.2 machine (and thought it was a video card/X issue) ... same setup (gem-0.87) doesn't give these problems on SuSE 7.0 machine (running XFree86-3.x rather than 4.2.0 on gentoo (though had to add -lXi and -lXmu to compile on SuSE))
hope this helps in narrowing the problem as would be good to see a gentoo package
best mar
