For a while I have had a problem loading the libraries that come with PD extended and have not been able to fix it. I have made sure that the paths are correct and I have deleted PD and downloaded and installed it several times, but nothing seems to work.

There is a big list of errors when I start PD telling me the files that it has tried to load and failed, here is a bit of it:

tried ./cyclone.d_ppc and failed
tried /Library/Pd/cyclone.d_ppc and failed
tried /System/Library/Fonts/cyclone.d_ppc and failed
tried /Library/Fonts/cyclone.d_ppc and failed
tried /Users/andrewbernstein/Library/Fonts/cyclone.d_ppc and failed
tried /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF/cyclone.d_ppc and failed
tried /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.3.1/Home/lib/fonts/cyclone.d_ppc and failed
tried /sw/lib/X11/fonts/msttf/cyclone.d_ppc and failed
tried /sw/lib/X11/fonts/intl/TrueType/cyclone.d_ppc and failed
tried /sw/lib/X11/fonts/applettf/cyclone.d_ppc and failed
tried /Applications/PD/Pd-extended.app/Contents/Resources/extra/cyclone.d_ppc and failed
tried /Users/andrewbernstein/Library/Pd/cyclone.d_ppc and failed
tried /Library/Pd/cyclone.d_ppc and failed
tried /Applications/Pd-extended.app/Contents/Resources/extra/cyclone.d_ppc and failed

it goes on like that for a while looking for all of the libraries but most of them fail. It finds GEM after a while, but nothing else, even though they are all in the same place.

any advice???

Sorry for interrupting your question

When I start pd not in verbose mode seems like many libraries added to the global path and objects exists, but in verbose mode <<tired but failed>> to all of them. Cant understand what seems to be the problem too.

I guess those who have solved this problem don't know how to explain this process or never had that problem, which is hard to believe to me. No hard feelings Can it be a fault of pd vanilla

So it is like it is said that libraries can be added one by one with startup flag "-lib libname"

So in the pd folder /extra found folders. those who have a *.pd_linux (in my case) can be added.

I wrote (start pd as root) -lib bsaylor and closed pd. started again and library added.
Off course there should be a path added first in Path... menu

at last somehing
