Dear List,
I'm planning to buy a Raspberry Pi sometime soon, and I'd like to know
the
implications of the ARM11 chip on the use of Pd. I know nothing about the differences in architectures, so i'd like to
know :
- why an ARM chip would be a problem for compiling, installing and
running
Pd,
It's not a problem--Pd compiles and runs on the arm architecture. Android devices for example have arm processors. Debian pure data packages are available for arm.
That's good news! I suppose Debian packages can't be installed in Fedora, can they?
compilation-wise... there's some gcc options that you use to specify arm architectures. I'd say "nothing to it", but you'll most likely have to play a bit to find the differences.
- if there exists another option that's up to date (Pda seems a bit old),
- if Libpd could be used instead (given that i only want to run Pd
patches
on the Raspberry Pi, I don't need to edit anything on it).
Don't you want to try the graphics processor on the R. Pi? At the very least, it should be good enough for tcl/tk.
If Pd can be installed then I'll definitely stick to it.
Thank you in advance!
Cheers!
Pierre.
