[PlanetCCRMA] pd-gui doesn't appear

[jan hendrik brueggemeier]

hi,

i noticed that i havn't had set the hostname of my machine. so i did set
it, cause i had vague impression that this may be part of the problem.

situation now is that starting pd causes a reboot (!) of my machine.
i tried it 3 time in a row and everytime my machine crashed and restarted.

any advice for me?
