Are you still running Ubuntu? Which version? If so, run this command
in a Terminal window:
/usr/local/bin/pd -stderr
Then copy and paste the resulting text into and email and send it to
this list. Mostly, your Ubuntu needs to have some packages
installed. You could also try running these commands in the Terminal:
aptitude install tcl8.4 tk8.4 libasound2 libjack0.100.0-0
aptitude install libspeex1 libsndfile1 fftw3 libogg0 libvorbis0a
libvorbisenc2 libvorbisfile3
That should get you up and running at the minimum.

Hi all,
I've been trying to get PD up and running on linux for a while, but
so far I've not been lucky, prolly because I'm a linux nub. The
first installation I tried (Fedora) didn't have a familiar
interface. The second (Ubuntu) did, but I couldn't install PD on it
for some unknow reason. I used a tar-ball installation, and ran the
"make install"-command and it did install on the computer, but PD
just wouldn't start up. On the third distribution I tried JackLab,
PD worked, but I had no internet connection.
I'm used to run normal pc's (Windows), so I'm after a distribution
that has a graphic desktop environment to not make it too
unfamiliar for starters. But most of all I'm after a distribution
that will run PD-extended and do it good. Does any of you have any
recommendations to which distribution to choose and perhaps good
linux and audio-sites for nubs like me?
Cheers!
Thomas
