Out of curiosity, does the autotools build work as well?

And yes, a simple embedded-only distort would be *very* useful as I had problems with performance turning Raspbian in the past.

Hi all,

This is fan mail for Pd on Tiny Core Linux onn Raspberry Pi.

TCL is a 50 megabyte GNU/Linux distribution which is 
immutable-by-default and runs very well on the Raspberry Pi.

I managed to compile Pd and got it to output a test tone which is why I 
am posting here. To do it yourself:

 * Install the alsa packages
 * Install the compiletc package
 * Compile Pd with `make -f makefile.gnu` inside the src directory
 * Run `pd -nogui mypatch.pd` from the bin directory

If you want to launch a Pd patch at startup add your command to 
/opt/bootlocal.sh

So far this seems like fertile ground as an alternative to the Raspbian 
distribution with its multiple-gigabyte bloat. Seems perfect for 
embedded Pd devices like guitar pedals, synths, and what-not.

Tiny Core Linux does not use systemd.

Cheers,

Chris.
