Amazing response both in time and effectiveness. I thank you all greatly.
three annoying newbie questions however:
Is this the package I need to get? http://sourceforge.net/projects/pd-gem/
no, you should not get a package, but the source code :
https://sourceforge.net/projects/pd-gem/develop
somthing like :
svn co https://pd-gem.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/pd-gem/trunk/Gem Gem/
should grab everything you need.
then, you'll have to read the README.linux in src folder
basically, you'll have to :
autoconf
./configure
sudo apt-get install whaterver missing
./configure
make
sudo make install

Do I need to uninstall GEM first or do anything to Pd before or after to
recognise (insmod style) and work with the new GEM
Do I follow the standard compiling route i.e.
./configre
make
make install
(I have only ever patched my kernel once. that is as far my linux
technical proficiency goes)
Many many thanks for the time out you have spent on me.

hello,
eeepc cam is a V4L2 device. i think there is no (yet) officiel Gem
release with V4L2 suport. you can check this when creating a
pix_video object : it should print V4L and V4L2...
current development version works fine. so you should use the svn to
download Gem latest source code, and compile it yourself.
you can also ask Iohannes to make release more often ;-)

Hi guys,
I normally stick to the forums but I've come here because I fear
this is going to be a little too in depth. (I shall post the
answer to the forum afterwards however).
I know the GEM developers have discussed this over here:
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg00098.html
But I'm not a GEM developer! :)
My issue is, [pix_video] won't see my camera under any
conditions (in GNU/Linux), whilst mplayer tv:// in the terminal
or the Cheese Webcam Booth are both very happy to. I simply
don't know where to begin. But really really desire this feature
(it's one of the main reasons i bought the eeepc 701)
Running eeebuntu lxde beta 1 (a cut down ubuntu/debian)
Is this a common problem? Are there some standard procedures to
fixing this? like reinstalling certain packages? e.t.c.
There's no rush here, but I'm sure it's a somewhat popular issue
since the eeepc must be a popular medium for Pure Data
Thanks very much everyone.
