[PD] stuck installing on OSX

[Mark Ballora]

Sorry to make my first post here so long.  I'm new to UNIX/OSX, and 
am running in circles trying to get pd installed.

After running the installer twice, I get the following at the terminal:

[techboy:~] markballora% which pd
/usr/local/pd/bin/pd

and

[techboy:~] markballora% ls /usr/local/pd/bin
pd           pd-watchdog  pd.tk        pdreceive    pdsend       pdtcl


So far so good?

Then I tried:
[techboy:~] markballora% pd -listdev

Seems odd, since the list of the directory showed the pd.tk file.  At 
this point, I can run the program and get it to do simple math 
patches, but no audio or MIDI test works.

The same thing happened when I tried running the program from the prompt:

[techboy:~] markballora% pd
reading startup file: /Users/markballora/.pdrc
could not open midi output device number 1: Invalid device ID.
using default input device number: 1
using default output device number: 3

Error message: Host error.
sh: /usr/local/bin/pd-watchdog: No such file or directory
Error in startup script: couldn't read file "/usr/local/bin/pd.tk": 
no such file or directory


I tried replacing /usr/local/pd/bin/pd file with the file from:
http://homepage.mac.com/atl/.cv/atl/Public/pd-pa-new-binary.tar.gz-link.gz
which is supposed to make it more compatible with the MOTU 828.

Now, when I try running it from the prompt, I get:

[techboy:~] markballora% pd
dyld: pd can't open library: /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.6.dylib  (No such 
file or directory, errno = 2)
Trace/BPT trap

Similarly, trying to run it from Pd.command gives:

[techboy:~] markballora% /Applications/Pd.command; exit
dyld: /usr/local/pd/bin/pd can't open library: 
/usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.6.dylib  (No such file or directory, errno = 2)
/Applications/Pd.command: line 2:   793 Trace/BPT trap 
/usr/local/pd/bin/pd -rt
logout
[Process completed]



Can anyone give me any guidance on how to get this thing working?
