[PD] dual boot debian-sid/puredyne install Pd (was) "oops: ALSA cards not reported in order?"

Cheers for the grep hint (not quite got to grips with the power of grep
yet).  With that I get:
/usr/bin/puredata
/usr/share/puredata/doc/5.reference/sigbinops-help.pd
/usr/share/puredata/doc/5.reference/otherbinops-help.pd
/usr/lib/puredata/bin
/usr/lib/puredata/bin/pd
/usr/lib/puredata/bin/pd-watchdog

Which is good info I think...
I had wanted to dual boot with the old puredyne install which is on the
same drive but separate partition.  Presumed that the puredyne/ubuntu
install wouldn't mess with the new debian install but perhaps/seemingly
that is not the case?

For sure:)

install and TRY AGAIN.

Cheers for all your help with this,
