I think we all can agree that to see the Ben used as a live instrument tuner, 
the needle type, with a visual indicator of intonation would be not only useful 
and awesome, but would be a positive demonstration of the power and 
adaptability of the Free Software/Hardware model. With either or both of these 
programs running on the Ben, it becomes impossible to beat it with conventional 
stand-alone digital tuners. Not to mention the Ben is also a general purpose 
computer!

 last time I posted about a tuner called FMit, its site is Here

 http://home.gna.org/fmit/

 but someone said there was an error compiling for some reason? I think it 
actually had to do with openGL (of all things).

 so, I discovered Lingot, its site is here

 the delightful thing is that THIS tuner starts up at a mere tiny resolution, 
it looks to be well within QVGA limits!
 Hopefully there are no issues getting this on the Ben.

 let me know what you think, thanks
