hi everyone,
just joined the list so i suppose i should introduce myself! i'm duncan and i make a lot of sound installation stuff, been using max/msp for quite a while and i feel like making the jump to pd. so my main enquiry line (you knew it was coming!!) is about making pd work on PDAs? has anyone had any experience of this? I searched the list but only found some references to getting midi in (and sadly the URLs mentioned were defunkt), i want to be able to to do some simple audio processing.. so any ideas on which PDAs this might work on, and what OS i would need? i'm pretty new at this backend game so any advice is appreciated.. i know it's possible to run linux on some PDAs but is this the way to go?
be well
duncan

several people on this list (including me) have used it, so feel free to ask here should you run into problems.

You'll need a PDA with an ARM type processor and a Linux installation for this architecture. Most people use something from Open Embedded/Familiar.
I put some install notes for Familiar Linux + PDa on an IPaq 5550 here:
http://lists.puredata.info/pipermail/pd-list/2005-03/026751.html
You can also search the list archives with the keyword "PDA" and turn up some other stuff.
I wrote in these notes that the Familiar 0.8.1 was pretty stable, but in fact later I discovered it was not. Maybe things have improved a bit in the two minor release versions (currently 0.8.3) since this time, but I have a hell of a time getting power management and some other crucial functions to work. Be ready to spend a lot of time with the install!
Good luck, d.
duncan, I run Pda on a couple of PDA's using Familiar 0.8.2 /GPE to do audio processing and related stuff. It works ok, but power management is a pain didn't try the latest familiar 0.83 yet
and good luck -eva
