[PD] problems with gem'installation on linux

[Bastien Baltazar]

	If someone has any experience on GEM with linux platform !!

	I compiled pd and it work fine. It's not the same for GEM, it don't want to compile because of the abscence of the strcmp function :

primTri.cpp: In method `void primTri::typeMess (t_symbol *)':
primTri.cpp:126: `strcmp' undeclared (first use this function)
primTri.cpp:126: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once for
each function it appears in.)
make[1]: *** [primTri.o] Erreur 1
make[1]: Quitte le répertoire `/usr/local/src/gem-0.84/src/Geos'
make: *** [subdirs] Erreur 255


	I tried to add in *.cpp : #include <string.h>
	And it compiled as well.

	My openGL environement is working fine with mesademo binaries.

	When I lauch pd, with verbose and lib flags, it's return all ok :

tried /usr/local/lib/pd/externs/Gem.pd_linux and succeeded
GEM: Mark Danks
GEM: ver: 0.84-5
GEM: compiled: Nov 20 2001
audio I/O stuck... closing audio


	At the time I create un windows, it returns on std :

error: GEM: Could not open display <I
 
error: GEM: Error creating const context
error: GEM: A serious error occured creating const Context
error: GEM: Do not continue
GEM: window created

	After that, pd crashes when I click in any pd's childrens windows.

	I wondered if the "display <I" has any link with the $DISPLAY env variable, so I type; on prompt :
# echo $DISPLAY
:0.0

		If someone has a idea ...

	Regards
