Dear all, puredata-0.48-1 is now in the PiCore repository! That's a binary build for tinycorelinux on Raspberry Pi. http://repo.tinycorelinux.net/9.x/armv6/tcz/
Thank you! This runs really great (compared to Pd on raspbian) on my version 1 RPi! I am currently wondering about realtime priorities:
When I launch pd as user 'tc' I get priority 94 scheduling failed. regardless if I use the -rt flag or not.
When I launch it as root using sudo with or without the -rt flag I get [...] priority 92 scheduling enabled. memory locking enabled. [...] audio buffer set to 25 configuring sound output... Sample width set to 2 bytes running at normal (non-real-time) priority. memory locking enabled. /usr/local/lib/pd/bin/pd-watchdog [...] and htop shows a -93 priority value. I am curious what the message about non-real-time priority means?
Furthermore, does anyone know if the 'tc' user can be added to an audiogroup, whose permissions could be elevated through /etc/security/limits.conf (currently not present in piCore).
This might be off-topic, but has anyone managed to create a persisntent home directory inside /dev/mmcblk0p2 (the ext2/3 partition created by piCore itself, which I did maximize already)?
I am so happy my patch runs without dropouts on the RPi 1 and that it boots so fast!
