I compiled the latest SVN on jaunty, should be version 2.0.1 i guess. made deb with checkinstall. so this is a 64 bit compilation of ProjectM latest. For some reason the package name is src. if anyone knows how to change that let me know.

Thanks alot, works beautifully. Saved me having to compile this.
Change the "Name" value in the "This package will be built according to these values:" dialog.

I found the dependencies, by the way, by installing it on a fresh system, and using apt-file to find the missing packages that have the needed files.
They are libqt4-opengl, libglew1.5, and libftgl2.
I would make a new package, but I have Lucid Lynx Beta 2 now, and it just doesn't want to compile under Lucid.
tried this guide 2day on my 10.04 32bit ubuntu and it worked perfect!!i have a hp pavilion dv6000 with nvidia geforce go 7400!!
thanks so much for this!!!been trying to get this to work sice 8.04!!!!!thanks again!!!
I get an error when trying to install the deb (32-BIT)
I've been trying for ages to get this to work with the source and the deb so any help is appreciated.Code:Dpkg: error processing /home/dan/Desktop/projectm_2.0.1-1334_i386.deb (--Install): trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/projectm.so.2.00' which is also in package libprojectm2 0:1.2.0-3 dpkg-deb: subproject paste killed by signal (broken pipe)
PS Running lucid
enlight22's deb didnt work for me, but it inspired me to learn checkinstall and make my own. One major difference is the number of presets in the deb I generated. I had to generate a script to rename all the presets (.milk files) with spaces in their name to underscores so that checkinstall would include them in the deb.
Generated this on a fresh install of Lucid Lynx so hopefully it will work for everyone with an updated system.
Also for everyone with a working projectM, apparently F1 in the visualization window displays a help menu. An option not listed in the Help Menu though is pressing "b" after "m" to see a tool bar.

If you really got rid of libprojectm2, there shouldn't be a /usr/lib/projectm.so.2.00 anymore. The deb you have there is also trying to install this, but the repos one is also there and is conflicting (the repos one isn't projectm-pulseaudio, it's some kind of thing for libvisual...kind of useless, really).
Double check if it was really uninstalled, then try manually removing /usr/lib/projectm.so.2.0.
Poof.
Thanks proteusmoteus!
