Pd is still completely freezing my ubuntu Dapper machine. I have tried
recompiling with Pd 0.40.2 and still absolute and instant freeze. So I
tried the suggestion below. The debugger reports:<br>
<br>
<tt>Starting program /usr/local/bin/pd<br>
[Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled]<br>
[New Thread -1211066688 (LWP 6400)]</tt><br>
<br>
Then the machine is completely frozen again, so I have to pull the plug.<br>
<br>
I also tried editing /etc/hosts as was suggested here:<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="http://lists.puredata.info/pipermail/pd-list/2005-07/029853.html">http://lists.puredata.info/pipermail/pd-list/2005-07/029853.html</a><br>
<br>
and that didn't help either...<br>
<br>
I have used this on many ubuntu Dapper machines so I don't know what's
so special about this one. Could it be the 2 dual-core Pentium Xeons?
Could it be the M-audio Delta 1010LT card?<br>
<br>
When I run<br>
<tt><br>
$ pd -verbose</tt><br>
<br>
I get no response at all. Just the instantly frozen machine.<br>
<br>
And I have tried the various flags (-nrt -nomidi -nosound) and others...<br>

I've tried both as root and not.

Can you try to start Pd under a debugger? That is:
$ gdb /usr/bin/pd
(gdb) run
and if Pd crashes and your machine is still alive try to catch a
backtrace with:
(gdb) bt
