Hi list,

running Pd 0.48-0 vanilla on Windows and installing Gem 0.93.3 via Deken
causes Problems at a few computers around me.

Gem loads with a [declare -lib Gem] object, but creating a [gemwin]
object by sending it the [create< message fails with many lines of 
	... couldn't create
 	 GLdefine GL_LINEAR
	... couldn't create
 	 GLdefine GL_EXP
	... couldn't create
 	 GLdefine GL_EXP2
	... couldn't create
 	 GLdefine GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT
	... couldn't create
 	 GLdefine GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT
	... couldn't create
 	 GLdefine GL_STENCIL_BUFFER_BIT
	... couldn't create
 	 GEMglMatrixMode GL_MODELVIEW
	... couldn't create
 	 GEMgluLookAt 0 0 4 0 0 0 0 1 0
	... couldn't create
 	 GEMglLoadIdentity
	... couldn't create
 	 GEMglMatrixMode GL_PROJECTION
	... couldn't create
 	 GEMglLoadIdentity
	... couldn't create
 	 GEMglFrustum -1 1 -1 1 1 20
	... couldn't create

IOhannes suspected a problem with the presence of a file Gem-meta.pd in
the search path, but there seems no such file present on the computers
at hand.

Using the Gem Windows installer from
http://gem.iem.at/releases/0.93.3/Gem-0.93.3-W32-i686.exe
did not help either.

This problem persists largely on Windows 10 machines and is present or
not on identical operating system versions on different installations.

It would be great to get this to work. Happy to supply more information
and testing.

best, Peter
