[PD] pd-extended 0.43.3/ raspberry pi (wheezy) - start patch on boot?

[Epic Jefferson]

Pierre/Cyrille:
it worked. since i have pd-extended installed, i added this line to
/etc/rc.local:

pd-extended nogui -audiobuf 100 -noadc /home/pi/Desktop/mypatch.pd

Hans:
i copied the script to /etc/init.d/pd-extended. it still didn't work for
me.
i crosschecked the file you attached with the one i already had and they
look
exactly the same to me. Perhaps you accidentally attached the old version?
