Yes? maybe, but my blackbook is a like a shit.... intel gma.... too much problems with graphics...but work, i dont use pdp_glx , i prefer work with gem as final screen, pdp_glx with intel cards work poor.

Best regards

You can also send a message to the pdp_xv or pdp_glx to I think [autostart 1] it says it in the pd window
So you do not have to restart

Yes, if you use a pdp2gem or pdp library... but if you only use GEM dont need X (I think that)....

Best regards from chile.... and current error... when i open pdp the x screeen open but not show the video... i need restart pd with the x open and works fine.

Best regards from Chile

If you're running OSX with pdp X11 may need to fire up but that is not GEM

whether you need an X-server, depends on your platform.
on windows, Gem uses platform dependend code to create windows and to
establish an openGL context.
on X-platforms (linux, bsd, irix,...) it will use X/glx, so you will
need an X-server somewhere to display (not necessarily the machine you
are running Pd on).
on OSX it will use Carbon/AGL.
on w32 it will use windows/wgl.

i don't know of any program that "directly connects to the graphics
card" and still wants to do more than copying pixels into some legacy
buffer.
