Hi, I can't give you a REAL answer but some hints. I am in the middle of getting my powerbook dual booting gentoo and osx. ChucK seems to work fine, but I haven't done any real major tests or applied the realtime patches to the kernel yet. I'll post more in a few weeks after my packages stop compiling :) What I do know is that Ge uses 10.3.9 on his powerbook as his main development box. He does an admirable job of compiling ChucK on windows and linux before releases and regularly spends chunks of time devoted to each port. While I know that all ports work, I am sure that osx will probably "run the best", maybe not the fastest, but probably with the least bugs and easiest to install. Other people have reported problems like yours when trying to install ChucK on different flavours of linux. There was this thread on the mailing list in February but it didn't get too far. https://lists.cs.princeton.edu/pipermail/chuck-users/2006-February/ 000336.html Good luck with ChucK. --art On 19-Jun-06, at 8:00 AM, mike clemow wrote:
Hi,
I was using DeMuDi (based on Debian), but it's repositories don't match well with Debian main, so the prerequisites of Chuck were breaking all my apps. Rather, apt-get would offer to uninstall all my favorite apps.
I finally compiled Chuck for Jack on Fedora Core 4 (after installing jack, of course) with success. It's just not as fast on that box as it would be on my realtime kernel with DeMuDi. I should say, Jack's latency is lower with a realtime kernel. I'm not sure how the kernel would affect Chuck.
Is Chuck's performance better on Linux than on Windows or Mac OS? Anyone do any tests?
Cheers, Mike
