[PD] Re: 64bit pd stuff

First I appologize for missing that last email. I was dealing
with the sharp stick my ex-girlfriend stabbed into my heart...

I havent gotten PDP to work, but I havent tried. Im still trying
to get Gem-0.91.0 built. The configure script wont find any
1394, my quicktime, or anything else. I did hack the configure
script so it gets past GL detection though... Miller said that
the pd from iem builds on 64 bit architectures, so I built
pd-0.38-0test10. I havent tried to use tables yet. I have seen
the soundfile thing, but I havent tried to debug that yet. Im
still getting xruns with jackd that occur intermittently - may
be an acpi thing, I dont know. I also get weird a/d/a sync
errors in pd which nobody seems to know about.

Like I said earlier, I just downloaded and built 2.6.10-rc2-mm1.
Every kernel after 2.6.9-rc2 should have hdsp support for x86_64
I think. Thanks Takashi! I dont know what pcmcia-cs is. I just
turned on alsa and hdsp in the kernel .config. Fedora Core isint
happy I did this - It wants me to use RPMs, but that is to slow
for me.

64 bit is a pain for us forrunners...

Good luck,
