Hey Linux gurus...
I'm doing an installation this weekend where I'd really like to
set up my Linux box and use ssh from my laptop to get a pd patch running, then unhook the laptop, leaving the patch running, go home and come back later to make adjustments or shut it down for the night.Thing is, I can't figure out how to disconnect without killing the applications I'm running. Is this possible? Does anybody have suggestions?
...how about setting up a vnc server on the installation machine,
then using a vnc client to log into the computer? I do this all
the time on osx using "chicken of the vnc", but I'm sure there are
comparable linux apps...
Using this script you can run Pd as a daemon:
scripts/debian/init.d/pd
That means you can do this kind of stuff:
/etc/init.d/pd start /etc/init.d/pd stop /etc/init.d/pd restart
You'll most likely need to use it in -nogui mode, but it does that by
default. You can configure which user account pd runs as also. If
you have root access, you can run pd as any user, otherwise you'll
have to run it as yourself.
