Just a thought : wouldn't it be useful to create a <a href="mailto:pd-Raspberrypi@iem.at">pd-Raspberrypi@iem.at</a> address ? I get the feeling that there will be more and more messages about this new platform which may not necessarily be interesting to pure Pd users.<br>

I guess this is a case of working out best practices for development.<br>
<br>
Nobody actually develops Pd in text mode, but gettin things running in<br>
an embedded way involves a good deal less graphics and can be intimidating<br>
or confusing at first.<br>
<br>
If you don't want the RPi set up with mouse, kbd and monitor like a full<br>
system, it's rather like working on other embedded development systems,<br>
you need to see the board as a target host, and your local machine as the<br>
development (client).<br>
<br>
One way is to work on a laptop or desktop, and the ftp/scp them accross to the<br>
target board.<br>
<br>
But probably most useful is to use X windows to ssh<br>
<br>
ssh -Y -l user address.of.my.rpi<br>
<br>
and then just start Pd, which will seem to run on your main machine.<br>
<br>
<br>
I sense some kind of Raspberry Pi and Pd workshop in the coming<br>
weeks. maybe best developmnt practices and tips will be an<br>
outcme of that meeting.<br>
<br>
best,<br>

I just got a raspberry pi, and I've heard a lot of chatter about how the -nogui flag solves a lot of weird dsp problems &c, plus it'd be nice not to have to waste a USB port plugging in a mouse as well as a keyboard/midi keyboard/sound card/m-audio box/etc. Plus my main comp is a mac, and I'm worried making my patches on my Mac and then getting them onto my pi will be a pain in the b.<br>
