Re: [PD] call for PDP testing on Mac OS X

2007-04-19 Thread marius schebella
same here. hmm, at least, when X11 is running, then it is possible to 
use pdp_glx for output. and for input I used pdp_noise just to see what 
is happening, and that combination gices me an output window and a 
working patch (both in test6 and rc2).
I think for input I want to use pdp_qt? or what is another object for 
live input?

pdp_v4l won't work on Mac OS X, since v4l = video4linux.  As for what  
to do about getting pdp_xv to work, I have no idea.  I tried a bit,  
and only succeeded in getting Pd to crash.  [pdp_sdl] is built in

[PD] webcam recommendations which work in Linux

2007-04-19 Thread Ivica Ico Bukvic
Hi all,

I've seen a lot of discussion recently on the list regarding which webcam to
use but none of the recommendations seem feasible. They are either
discontinued hard-to-find products or they simply don't work. For this
reason, I was wondering if anyone has a recommendation which webcam to get
for Linux if I want a balance between fps, resolution, and stability. I also
read about IP cameras but am not sure if these can be interfaces with gem.

Any help is most appreciated!

Re: [PD] I created an ebuild for pd-0.40-p2

2007-04-19 Thread Hans-Christoph Steiner

It seems that these ebuild files could use the existing build system  
quite easily.  The existing system isn't always pretty, but it  
works.  And ultimately we will both be better off if we join forces  
rather than have duplicate efforts.  I am definitely open to  
improving the existing system.  And I can help get you up to speed  
via email, IM, IRC, voice, whatever.

For example, in maxlib/maxlib-.ebuild, it could call the existing  
build system like this:

src_compile() {
make -C /path/to/pure-data/externals maxlib
}

src_install() {
make -C /path/to/pure-data/externals DESTDIR="${D}" maxlib_install
}

And that would be enough to build and install.  This is how it was  
done for PlanetCCRMA.  Then you could generate this same .ebuild file  
using a script for all of the libraries built by Pd-extended.  That  
also means that a given developer could manage just their own  
Makefile, and the changes will automatically be used in all the  
builds, including the gentoo.  Otherwise, you'll have to keep up with  
the changes that developers make to their own code.

Here is the current list of libraries that are built this way:  boids  
bsaylor creb cxc cyclone deprecated ekext ext13 flatspace flib  
freeverb ggee hardware hcs iem_ambi iem_bin_ambi iemlib jasch_lib  
loaders mapping markex maxlib mjlib motex mrpeach msd oscx pan pddp  
pdogg pmpd sigpack smlib toxy unauthorized vbap zexy pdcontainer  
adaptive iem_delay iem_roomsim iem_spec2 iem_tab flashserver iemgui

Right now, one of the key reasons why the auto-build farm is limited  
to the pure-data CVS on SourceForge is because of security.   
Basically, anyone who has commit access to the pure-data CVS can run  
any script they want on all of the machines.  Therefore, I need to  
keep tabs on what scripts are being added to the CVS.  I also know  
who has commit access to the pure-data CVS.

Ideally, I wouldn't have to worry about security, but these machines  
are hosted by the university I work at.  If they get hacked, IT will  
tell me to remove them from the network.  Then we have no more auto- 
build farm.

There is an excellent sampler architecture in the pdmtl abstractions
called the sample_id format. It probably does what you need. Download
the release here:
http://wiki.dataflow.ws/PdMtlAbstractions

Try out the examples in pdmtl/examples/sample_id

It can preload samples, load them in real time, send them to multiple
targets, visualize the sample. change the play region, etc...

The idea is to make a package for each library, then a separate  
package for pd-extended with would be Pd-vanilla with the patches in  
packages/patches.  That's how things are broken out in externals/ 
Makefile and in PlanetCCRMA (and a bit in the current Debian  
packages).  And I think it makes sense here.  Then it also makes for  
a clear path for people to make packages for their own Pd libs  
outside of the pure-data CVS, if they so choose.

Guenter's work for several years, as are the Gem packages. But what's
missing is a package with more externals for those, who don't want to
compile everything on their own. As this package is more likely to
collect lots of bug reports in the Debian BTS (because of sheer size
of the package) and thus may put quite a burden on the official Debian
maintainer, this pd-externals package may be easier to maintain
outside of Debian.

Re: [PD] Linux - which distribution to use?

2007-04-19 Thread David Merrill

I happily use Ubuntu Edgy, with a pd-extended install. Also, I've found the
following USB WiFi adapter to work out-of-the-box, if you don't have
built-in WiFi.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833127151
The driver is already present as a module, so you just have to update your
/etc/network/interfaces file.

I also could never get that computer on the internet through USB
wireless (it had no built in wireless card), and these days I pretty
much depend on some sort of wireless connection to get on the
internet, I'm mostly working away from home. I found that Debian was
impossible to use without an internet connection, and it was quite a
catch22 trying to fix anything, when I couldn't search for info and
apt-get things to try to solve the problem.

So, what I'm saying is, I WANT to intall Debian, but I'm very afraid
to do so and have the same kind of probems. My newer computer (used
one year) though, is a Dell Inspiron 630m, which my old employer let
me keep when I left, while the old one was some PIII Toshiba. Can I
expect an easier time with the install of Debian on a newer laptop? My
friend led me to believe the problems were related to having an older
laptop.

Or should I try Ubuntu first if I'm doing it myself, and wait for 6
months for the Debian until I'm more comfortable with it all? I guess
it's the hardware/wireless config + kernel recompiling that I'm
worried about.

The auto-build farm is already set up to handle this, once there are

It would be quite straightforward to make debian packages from the Pd- 
extended build system.  I helped nando from CCRMA make PlanetCCRMA  
packages from the Pd-extended build system, so we worked out most of

We could check in FTGL into GemLibs, then it would be pretty  
straightforward to have the auto-builds use FTGL automatically on  
every platform.  I would do it if I had commit access to GemLibs.

I see. That is good,

ok, got it.
My advice is to leave the overlay on SVN, also because (hopefully) one
day those ebuilds will go in the official gentoo repository, or at
least in gentoo-sunrise (one of the biggest addon repos), so the task
of syncing ebuilds will be totally transparent (it est: managed by
emerge --sync).

until that day, you can add two commands that sync pd-related ebuilds
from our repository, just before the line that compiles everything
(that will be: emerge media-sound/pd media-plugins/zexy
media-plugins/maxlib ...) into your cron job:

---[gentoo nightly build script]-
pushd /usr/local/overlays
svn co https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/pd-overlay/pd-overlay
popd
# emerging stuff, like:
#   emerge pd maxlib zexy 2>&1 | tee emerge-pd.log
---[end]-

so, whenever something breaks in the gentoo build farm, it could
depend on two factors:

1) I (or someone of pd-overlay team) has made some mistake in the
ebuild script. I will fix that (pls file bugs at
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?atid=892936&group_id=180376&func=browse)

2) A developer changed something (tipically a Makefile) breaking the
gentoo install someway (this can be fixed by both, just a matter of
deciding *what* to fix, if the Makefile or the ebuild) or breaking the
gentoo compile (this often should be solved upstream)

I don't think repo-releases are needed.
We try to put into SVN only working ebuilds (tested on our computers);
the simplest ebuild that compiles and installs with:
  ./configure && make && make install
should be 100% fail-safe

But the point is: actually 99% of our ebuilds have version - (a
convention to mean that their sources are pulled from Pd CVS) so they
are more subject to break on CVS changes, especially when Makefile
stuff like PREFIX and DESTDIR gets touched (!)

Making releases/snapshots for *every* external would help a lot
improving reliability; though this is not primary purpose of the
project; would be better to rely that each commit on pd-cvs doesn't
break anything :)

Also: like other package management, we could mark ebuilds unstable,
testing or stable, with simple use of keywords (please see the gentoo
manual for more detail on this)


> The key to making this work is having pd-overlay use the same
> directory structure as the pure-data CVS.

can you explain better what do you mean?
pd-overlay has the structure of a gentoo ebuild tree. I don't believe
it can be altered in some way

if you are going to install gentoo on x86 arch:

* get the install ISO here:
  http://bouncer.gentoo.org/?product=gentoo-2006.1-minimal&os=x86
* refer to the x86 handbook for installing:
  http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml

the same applies for other archs, like ppc, ia64, amd64, ppc64, hppa, alpha, ...

dependencies are checked automatically, so emerge-ing pd would install
also Xorg, alsa, tcl, tk, etc

anyway I can check your box for consistance :) just do the initial
part of the install so that it can be bootable, then mail me ssh
access, or let us meet on irc

[PD] call for PDP testing on Mac OS X

So I am calling on all of you to tell me what's broken.

Re: [PD] can't run Gem in Fedora with generic graphics (no GLX shader)?

Oh yes, I had tried "disable-ARB" hoping that would turn off glsl :)

I haven't tried "--with-glversion"... will do that next time I guess.

In fact I didn't mean a kind of archive but a kind of apt repository 
that would install or suggest the install of needed files for particular 
externals, installing an external would look like:

apt-get install pd-nameofexternal
or
apt-get install pd-nameofabstractions

 It's true that having at least one mirrored external archive where we 
could find all architectures versions would be nice.

Re: [PD] Linux - which distribution to use?

2007-04-19 Thread David Powers
Question: I'm considering a dual boot because my old laptop with
Debian died, and I got a new one, currently with XP (running blackbox
for windows though, thanks Frank!). However, one thing I recall is
that on my old laptop, the system was freezing until the kernel was
patched. Having to patch the kernel before anything works.

I also could never get that computer on the internet through USB
wireless (it had no built in wireless card), and these days I pretty
much depend on some sort of wireless connection to get on the
internet, I'm mostly working away from home. I found that Debian was
impossible to use without an internet connection, and it was quite a
catch22 trying to fix anything, when I couldn't search for info and
apt-get things to try to solve the problem.

So, what I'm saying is, I WANT to intall Debian, but I'm very afraid
to do so and have the same kind of probems. My newer computer (used
one year) though, is a Dell Inspiron 630m, which my old employer let
me keep when I left, while the old one was some PIII Toshiba. Can I
expect an easier time with the install of Debian on a newer laptop? My
friend led me to believe the problems were related to having an older
laptop.

Or should I try Ubuntu first if I'm doing it myself, and wait for 6
months for the Debian until I'm more comfortable with it all? I guess
it's the hardware/wireless config + kernel recompiling that I'm
worried about.

You mean a kind of pd-externals archive: Just abstractions and

well of course; Gem's font support is designed to be compiled with FTGL
on all platforms (btw, this was another bonus of using FTGL as it runs
on linux, os-x and w32)

i don't know why your version of Gem is not compiled with FTGL, but i
doubt that i compiled it (so i am not to blame).

if it is the version taken from pd-extended, than there is a reason for
not having FTGL (well, even if it is not from pd-extended, i guess there
is a reason for being compiled without FTGL; but in pd-extended i happen
to know about it):
compiling Gem with FTGL requires FTGL to be available on the compiling
machine.
this is simply not the case on the pd-extended OS-X build-machine,
because there are no FTGL-packages available from fink.
while the (deprecated) GemLibs do have a version of FTGL checked in, no
automated build-system is provided for it.
so FTGL gets not compiled on the build-system, which means that it is
not available for Gem.

there are several things you can do about this:
- build Gem by hand (it is not that hard to do; you can find
step-by-step instructions how i did it in the gem-dev archives)
- try to get FTGL in GemLibs to be automatically build on the
buil-machine and make Gem use it
- try to get FTGL into fink

My vote goes for 64 Studio which gave me the best realtime performance /

There is an forthcomming Ubuntustudio project which should give better

[makefilename array%d] will give what you asked for.




with older versions of pd (<0.40) you should probably use a naming
scheme like 3array in order to be able to better modularize your patch.
then you could construct the tablenames dynamically either with
[makefilename %darray] or with [symbol $1array(, and you get the benefit
of being able to easily expand the number of slots with stuff like
[slot 3] which in turn calls [table $1array].

with newer versions of pd (>=0.40) you can also use $args within the
symbols (e.g. [symbol array$1(

The versions I have been using has all that working. And from what  
your saying, this version was compiled with FTGL.:
GEM: ver: 0.90
GEM: compiled: Mar  8 2006



This one is not:
GEM: Graphics Environment for Multimedia
GEM: ver: 0.91-cvs
GEM: compiled: Apr 14 2007

the current version of GEM is not compiled with FTGL? Are there any

With regards to full character set... I did some tests a while back,  
with the older version (see above) which I posted on the list  
(without much interest). The character mapping then was a bit messed  
up. Importing UTF 8 format into PD is fine, but spitting it out to  
any text object in GEM gets the characters jumbled up (the ones  
outside the first 128). Also, it was not happy doing japanese, which  
showed up fine in the symbol atom box. The only format it mapped  
correctly was Windows Latin 1252 (all 256 characters - not really the  
extended set I was hoping for). I did extensive tests on re- 
formatting the fonts as well. Again, this came out with the same  
result - correct for 1252 only. Beats me. Could this be an OS issue?  
Im on OSX - whatever latest update.

dear List,

This is a pretty basic query, I think.
I am trying to make a sample-scrambler where I can nbavigate through a 
large database of samples.  I'm using soundfiler to load all the samples 
and tabplay~ .  I named all the samples array# (array1,array2,etc) I am

please note that [textextruded] was only introduced into Gem because of
FTGL (the old fontrendering library used was GLTT which had no such
thing as extruded text).

so the answer is: in order to have [textextruded] working, you must
compile Gem with FTGL; there have never been another way to get extruded
text.

like chris has said, there has not been a grand change regarding fonts

and yes, the text-objects in current CVS support full Unicode (well not

Re: [PD] FTGL

2007-04-19 Thread chris clepper

GEM moved to FTGL years ago.  This was not a recent change at all.

support a full UTF-8 character map?

Sorry for complaining, Id so love to try the latest releases, but are

Or maybe see if the numbers in the numberboxes below - where it says  
"audio input (rms db) - are more then 0 anywhere.

That would be like seeing if there is any sound that Andy talked about.

I'm not expert, just a debug hint..

Ok.

I've added to the 1st and 3ed test for Mac OS X extended-test7.

And altered the size in the 2nd test for Mac OS X extended-RC1 and  
vanilla-0.40-2.


And added the instructions to a subpatch.

Attached.

hmm, you are basically not interested in MIDI (fixing this is just a
side-product of your problem) but in AUDIO.
as long as you have neiter "OSS" nor "ALSA" nor "JACK" activated (note:
not all 3 options might be present on your system; and "ALSA" is NOT the
same as "ALSA-MIDI") you will not  hear anything.

ALSA-MIDI is really just the seq-subsystem of alsa (for sharing midi
data); it is definitely _not_ ALSA+MIDI
otoh, ALSA is the audio-subsytem of alsa;
you can well run audio over oss (or jack) and midi over alsa.

this might sound trivial, but:
try selecting "-20", probably -40 is just to low for your
soundcard/setting

Hmm, that doesn't sound right.

What kind of animations? If you're animating 3D objects, normally you're 
talking about skeletal animations - in which case, the usual way to do 
things is to have the model defined in one file (the .obj file), and 
another file defining the skeleton and the animation keyframes.

Do other applications make sound?
Is the card muted by Alsamixer? Check the Alsamixer app and see.

Re: [PD] can't run Gem in Fedora with generic graphics (no GLX shader)?

well, i have had a hard time with configure switches: i once added the
disable-NV and disable-ARB switches, which just delayed the problem till
the advent of the glsl-shaders; i don't think a configure switch for any
possible driver is doable
so i ended up providing a very generic configure switch
"--with-glversion" which should allow you to enforce that no calls from
openGL-specs higher than the given version number are used.
e.g. "--with-glversion=1.5" should disable all openGL-2.0 (and up)
calls, which effectively also disables the glsl-stuff.
in my experience, this works pretty well.

chris has proposed this already for you, have you tried it and did it
not work?

deleting files from the canonical source is definitely not the way to go
(on the long run),

does anyone know (or rather: is there) a way to dynamically link objects
together and then strip all unused dependencies?
