[PD] [pix_image] available image format on linux?

[Jonghyun Kim]

Pd says:
====
Image loading support: SGI jpeg
[pix_draw]: requesting [pix_draw] - consider using [pix_texture]
GEM: Only using 8 color bits
GEM: Direct Rendering enabled!
[pix_image]: failed to load image '/home/ak/Desktop/Screenshot from
2016-02-20 22:04:40.png'
====
I installed gem-plugin-magick, but I still can't load PNG.
