[PD] PDa on HP IPAQ 5550

[CK]

hi derek,

I read:

I use remote X11 forwarding that works fine

dunno about shell osc should work now, but only server IIRC

it's normal on familiar 0.8.1 with the 5550 (I have the same issue here)
try an old tcl/tk from familiar instead of guenter's that might help.
(it worked for me with the previous version of pda before I tried the 
new one with guenter's tcl/tk)
 
did you get alsa audio working with line in/out on the 5550 ? 
last time I checked it would only output to the speaker.

good luck,

x
