Michael,

would it be an option to enable VNC viewer on the pi for programming and installing libraries and when i youre finished go back to -nogui….

I've tried starting it with the gui, since I'm theoretically using X11 forwarding, but I'm getting errors and Pd won't start with the gui on my Pi. Since I didn't find any obvious solution for those errors, I prefer to stick with the terminal for now.

IOhannes,

Thank you! "multimedia-puredata" got me off to a great start! I didn't know I could use apt-get for externals, so that's definitely good to know. I also installed it on my Ubuntu machine, so I'll have more libraries to browse through now. :)

Christof,

I tried installing the Deken command line tool that you linked to, but I'm not sure if it's working properly. It seems like I can run it, but it didn't do the setup like the Readme file suggests it should. I also can't seem to find any search/download/install commands. If I was able to get it working, it could be helpful in installing the else library, which didn't come with the multimedia package above.
