hi,
thanks for the reply, I am confident to get it working, hoping, that it 
will not take too long. a short note here:

error: lua: error loading `msgltest1':
[string "msgltest1"]:1: module 'opengl' not found:
	no field package.preload['opengl']
	no file '/Users/marius/pd/pdlua/opengl'
	no file '/Users/marius/pd/pdlua/opengl.lua'
	no file './opengl.lua'
	no file '/usr/local/share/lua/5.1/opengl.lua'
	no file '/usr/local/share/lua/5.1/opengl/init.lua'
	no file '/usr/local/lib/lua/5.1/opengl.lua'
	no file '/usr/local/lib/lua/5.1/opengl/init.lua'
	no file './opengl.so'
	no file '/usr/local/lib/lua/5.1/opengl.so'
	no file '/usr/local/lib/lua/5.1/loadall.so'

it seems pdlua is only looking for the "so" extension in /usr/local/lib...
creating a symlink without the extension solved this for now.
marius.
