Greetings All
I just installed puredata .43.4 ppa onto ubuntu 10.04 and I get this error and it won't launch the gui
PUREDATA selection doesn't exist or form "STRING" not defined PUREDATA selection doesn't exist or form "STRING" not defined while executing "selection get -selection PUREDATA" (procedure "first_lost" line 2) invoked from within "first_lost"
Any idea how to fix this? the ppa link is http://ppa.launchpad.net/eighthave/pd-extended/ubuntu
Thanks
Hey Rick,
How are you launching Pd? Via the menu? Could you try in the Terminal: pd-extended

One thing I noticed is that the limits.conf for 10.04 is located in etc/security/ but the message is tell me to change the file in etc/
Thanks Rick

could you try starting PdX without jack? something like: $ pd-extended -alsa
or even
$ pd-extended -nosound

this is unrelated. various distributions put those files in different places (though it seems that at least on debian derivatives there is a consensus to use directories for configurations where potentially multiple "agents" (sysadmins as well as packages) want to add/remove their little bits), and nobody cared to modify the jack sources for your distribution to print out the correct filename.
nevertheless, you probably should change your limits according to the suggestion you got.

does this also happen with Pd-0.44 (e.g. from git)?

I haven't tried .44 as of yet only the .43.4 version

Ah, I see. So the issue is actually with your connection to Jack. Pd-extended started, but got hung up somehow on Jack. You can kill any old instances in the Terminal using 'killall pd'.
There is a new "singleton" mode where the first instance of Pd claims the "PUREDATA" X11 selection, and new instances talk to the first one via the PUREDATA X11 selection. So my guess is then you probably tried starting Pd-extended again from the menu, and the singleton was claimed by the first instance but it hadn't claimed the PUREDATA selection. Therefore the new instance got confused and gave you that error.
WARNING: 64-bit builds are still beta, some libraries are known to have serious issues (cyclone, maxlib, moonlib, moocow, pdp, bsaylor, etc.
That's a new warning added to point out a long standing condition. Those libraries have objects that never worked properly on 64-bit.
