[PD-dev] pd on armv7 (beagleboard): crackles [SOLVED]

[Edgar Berdahl]

Hi Damian,

It's wonderful that you got this to work. So far, I have gotten to the  
crackling stop-barrier using ALSA under Angstrom. I am trying to  
switch to Ubuntu to repeat what you have observed (i.e. that Pd on the  
beagleboard with floating point works), but I have a few questions:
  - Can you do any significant signal processing without running out  
of CPU? It might be necessary to be careful with the compiler switches  
to make sure that pd is actually using NEON instructions rather than  
emulating floating point.
  - Have you tried using the GUI at all?
  - Some people report some problems with USB-over-ethernet for Lucid  
10.04. Have you used USB-over-ethernet successfully with it?

Thanks so much!!!

  - Ed

Psst. BTW your wiki says that you used 10.4, but I believe that Lucid  
is 10.04.
