[PD] remote desktop on the Pi and other questions about it

[Alexandre Torres Porres]

Nice, I figure it should work too... I didn't bother to get me a wi-fi
dongle and I don't want to anyway ;) I feel compelled to buy a battery for
it though, not that I need it at all so far.

Next step, I guess we could do a round up regarding USB audio, and also
post that on the Pd site.

cheers
