It's not a problem--Pd compiles and runs on the arm architecture. Android devices for example have arm processors. Debian pure data packages are available for arm. compilation-wise... there's some gcc options that you use to specify arm architectures. I'd say "nothing to it", but you'll most likely have to play a bit to find the differences. > - if there exists another option that's up to date (Pda seems a bit old), > - if Libpd could be used instead (given that i only want to run Pd patches > on the Raspberry Pi, I don't need to edit anything on it). Don't you want to try the graphics processor on the R. Pi? At the very least, it should be good enough for tcl/tk. > > Thank you in advance! > > Cheers! > > Pierre. > > _______________________________________________ > [email protected] mailing list > UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> > http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list > _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
