[PD] pd, windows & ubuntu

[Joe Newlin]

I tried running pd -verbose from the terminal, but got the same
errors. It looks like at least some of the extended libraries are not
being searched, and that pd is not searching subdirectories of the
paths I entered.

I'm sure it is something simple, but being fairly in the dark about
both pd and linux, putting the two together is a recipe for confusion.
