[PD] install Pd on ubuntu without internet; video-playback codec windows?

[Johnny Mauser]

Dear list!

i am trying to install pd-extended 0.42.5 on ubuntu 10.04 and am a total
beginner with any linux. I was so happy to manage to install ubuntu, but
now the Package Installer asks for more and more dependencies. My machine
is not allowed to connect to internet, and i go crazy copying all the
dependencies via usb stick from this internet-pc to performance-pc! How to
easy-install Pd?

I am trying linux, 'cause my patch has problems playing multible videos on
windows. I use foto-jpeg decoded videos with quicktime for window, because
i found that quicktime reads the framenumber correct instead of direct
show. live-cam input is quite stable, but windows freezes from time to time
with playback of 5 videos. I have quite a fast machine and an ssd drive
which should be able to do the task i thought.

So:
which video format works well with windows?
how do i get pd-extended on linux working?

please exuse my confusion, too much operating system problems today; too
less Pd...
