get Csound running on PPC

I'm new to Csound, so this may be a silly question. I've installed the latest version (5.08) and am using the csoundVGUI on my PPC G4. When I try to run example 101 from the chaper01 examples that I downloaded, I get the following message.

PortMIDI real time MIDI plugin for Csound
PortAudio real-time audio module for Csound
virtual_keyboard real time MIDI plugin for Csound
0dBFS level = 32768.0
Csound version 5.08 (float samples) Feb 4 2008
libsndfile-1.0.16
unknown long option: '--1582186029'

the final line is in red. I also get no sound.

A friend set Csound up with me on my IntelMac laptop, and that works fine.

Help!!!!

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Re: getting Csound running on PPC

Hello Ambrose,

Is this Mac OS X or Linux? And which version?

What happens if you try running Csound from the commandline?

(On OS X, launch the Terminal application in the /Applications/Utilities folder and type something like

csound -odac /path/to/mycsoundfile.csd
)

Let us know what happens with that or post if you need further help with the commandline.
