Yes....that's it. The patch loads fine now. I guess I should add the
"-font-face Monaco" flag to the startup settings.
Can you explain why this makes it work?
Thanks very much for your help.

Hi Nick,
I see. Thanks for the info.
Could you try to start Pd from the terminal with:
pdextended -font-face Monaco
It seems hard to find the problem. I saw you wrote on the list, did
anybody replied?
If not, I'll write too. I'm sorry but I'm a bit clueless at the
moment, but I use to run the patch on several Ubuntu machines and
never encountered this problem before.
Best,
Marco

Hi Marco, I uninstalled compiz in synaptic but the crash is still
happening. Yes, I can bang the other bangs and I see the help
patches no problem. The graphic card is G86 nvidia GEforce 8400m G
The only time I had a crash like this was when trying to use
Thomas Grills flext based external Xsample.
Otherwise PD behaves in a very stable manner.
The font issue may well be the cause, but that is just a sort of
hunch of mine.
Many thanks for your interest and support in this problem

Ok, if you have Compiz enabled, could you try to disable it and
run again CNTRL from the terminal?
Are you able to bang the other [bangs] in the splash screen and
see the related popup subpatches?
Which graphic card do you have?
It seems something related to the font Pd look for, but can't
find useful info about it. I'll keep on looking.
Can you normally use Pd with no problem?
Thanks,
Best,
Marco

Hi Marco....I tried the -noloadbang flag, but the crash
actually occurs when I click the big bang button on the
splash screen to open the main C[]NTR[]L patch.
Any ideas much appreciated.

Hi Nick,
thanks for your feedback, much appreciated.
I run the software on Ubuntu Lucid Lynx with no problem.
Indeed, the log you posted seems to be something X11
related, even though at the moment we cannot exclude it's
CNTRL doing something that your system does not like.
Could you try to run CNTRL in the terminal with the flag
-noloadbang?
Perhaps there are some initialization parameters which
conflict with some settings of your system.
Thanks,
Best wishes,
Marco

Hello Marco, congratulations on your interesting and beautifully
documented project Xth sense.
I'm interested in trying to get C:NTR:l running on my ubuntu 10.04
laptop system, but trying to start the patch crashes PD and causes
it to
close immediately.
Do you know of anyone running it on a comparable system?
best regards, Nick Burge.
