I think I see this error from time to time, though I didn't worry about it. The one thing to know with Pd and ALSA on Ubuntu (12.04 or probably even other releases), is that Pd wants to have exclusive access to the sound card. So if you start Pd's DSP while some pulse audio client is using the soundcard, Pd is not able to connect to the soundcard. On the other hand, when Pd has DSP on and is connected to the soundcard, you cannot play sound from any pulse clients. So if you want Pd to be able to grab the soundcard, make sure you don't have any Youtube movie playing in Firefox. > > - X crashes sometimes when typing stuff in an object box, > I find it strange this happens also on 12.04. I am using Pd (though not Pd-extended) regularly on 12.04 on machines with Intel drivers and never run into this kind of problems. Of course, this is anecdotal and doesn't mean they cannot happen. If there is still no fix for this bug available (I thought people had to compile Inter driver manually to get rid of the problem), I'd try to mitigate the problem by checking, if it happens also with Pd vanilla or Pd-l2ork.
