Hi, I'm a bit of a newb myself, but maybe my advice can hold you over until dave and/or gabor get to this. I don't have any experience with fluxus on osx so I can't help you there, but I'm sure someone will be able to help you get the error output. Starting the app from the command line would probably be a good start if you can figure out how to do that.
As far as Ubuntu goes, that is a little more up my alley. I know the devs had been recently working on a .dev for intreped/jaunty that I haven't had a chance to test yet, but can be found here: http://www.pawfal.org/fluxus/files/fluxus_0.16rc3-1_i386.deb I just wish they had this when I originally installed fluxus, but I guess building from source is a valuable "experience." As far as your actual build error, is it possible that despite installing libode, you didn't install the headers (i.e. libode-dev). I took the liberty to look up the fPIC gcc flag, and it appears that it is required for "Position-Independent Code" shared libraries. Searching google for gcc fPIC will return a wealth of information, and Gentoo has docs that look promising for figuring out how to fix your error found here: http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/base/amd64/howtos/index.xml?part=1&chap=3. I don't really have time to grok it all, but maybe it will be useful to you. Sorry if this isn't helpful, but I figured I'd do what I can. -Stephen On Tue, May 26, 2009 at 12:05 AM, Emilio Zamudio Murillo <[email protected]> wrote: > > > Hi, I've been testing live coding apps for a while and discovered fluxus.
