Re: [PD] Pd on Tiny Core Linux on Raspberry Pi

Dear all, i have made a picore package for the pure data binaries: http://l.grrrr.org/puredata_tcz

The files need to be put into the tce/optional folder, and enabled in tce/onboot.lst if desired.

It is compiled for alsa only with -Os optimization and no specific architecture. It can use tcl/tk if installed, fftw3 is currently not used.

Please let me know if it works for you. If it does i will submit it to the official picore repo.

best, Thomas

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.
