So I untar this gz file and cd to the src directory. I follow the instructions, and pd installs to /home/chuckk/pd-0.40.0-2. If I first move the whole folder to /usr/local, I can't configure it as non-root. Isn't installation supposed to default to some /usr/.. folder, or is that only if I install as root?

It also won't connect to jackd... I have the jack dev library, the xorg-xserver dev library, tcl and tk devs, and gcc. ./configure make depend make (or make install as root, tried both) open jack, open pd, pd only reports that all the audio devices are busy, and can't show up... What could I be missing?

Try forcing it during configure with --enable-jack
Also, maybe jack has to be running to be detected during configure? I can't remember.

also it's confusing if you are using the autobuild. the accompanying
install.txt is about compiling but gives no hint where to put the thing.

Thanks, that finally did it, that and installing as root. -Chuckk
I'm back to this. For various reasons, I've had to reinstall Linux numerous times on two different laptops. I'm trying once again to get pd to recognize jack.
I have the libjack dev package installed, the xserver-xorg dev files, tcl and tk devs, and gcc. # ./configure --enable-alsa --enable-jack # make depend # make install
Pd shows the jack audio option under Media, and the dialog box comes up, but it never shows up in jack control and when I pull down the Media menu again it isn't selected.
Debian, 2.6.18-3-amd64 pd-0.40-2
What could I be missing this time?

I think this means that pd can't see jack. Whenever it happens to me it's because I accidentally ran one of them as root and not the other :)

Which .gz file is this? I've never seen a pd-tgz install to the home directory unless you specificially configured it this way. Default install target is "/usr/local/" Or did you miss the final "make instalL" step after compiling?

Hi. http://crca.ucsd.edu/~msp/Software/pd-0.40-2.src.tar.gz I think it was just that I was running "make" as a normal user, one of the possibilities in the INSTALL.txt. I did make install as root, and it's in /usr/local now. Sometimes I think I should have spent some time in a monastery before installing Linux. I'd flip out a little less. -Chuckk

hi.
"make" (without "install") only changes/updates/creates files in the your local copy of pd; "make install" copies some files into /usr/local/; or /usr; or somewhere else where everybody can find it.
when running "make install" as a normal user, the installation most likely fails; but you will still be able to use the local pd-executables (created by "make"); after all "make install" basically mirrors your local pd-dir (and omits some unnecessary things like source-code).
Sometimes I think I should have spent some time in a monastery before installing Linux. I'd flip out a little less.
are you possibly suggesting, that normal users should be able to install (and overwrite) software into /usr/local/ without having to acquire special permissions? good luck.
i wouldn't want any user to be able to put an "xterm" executable with a built-in keylogger into /usr/local/bin. i also would hate to delete my harddisk because my "make clean" target had a typo.

No, I just meant that I need to take my time and look closer at things before thinking something is wrong.

So would I, and I probably would.
