Hey,

I hope you don't mind, I cc'ed the Pd list since I think there are
others interested in this info as well.

Let me first say that your work at eyebeam is wizard grade stuff.
getting pd to the palms is beyond impressive.

so I have been following very closely the steps you outline and I
have found success signal processing with the provided gridthing,
and have tried making some patches and saving them on my palmTX.

a few questions, if you have time-

when I save a patch on the palmtx, where does it end up on the sd
card? there is no / file hierarchy that I can find on it. I
confess I am a linux noob, and can not recognize where to save .pd
patches while reading the card from a sdcard reader either. You
encouraged me in your video to come up with fun new stuff for the
palm-pd, and I have just hit this wall between my desktop pc and my
palm.

If you are working directly on the Palm TX, think of a the Palm TX as
a regular linux box, and the SD card is just a disk. I don't really
think its possible to get much patching done on the device itself. I
write the patches on my laptop, then copy them to the card to run them
on the Palm TX.

I've checked out the hack&dev website (which is perplexing to me)
and the state of wifi for the tx is very confusing. Can you weigh
in on the state of the connectivity on the TX? I can call up a
[netrecieve] and [netsend] objects, but can i make use of them?

I think the wifi is working, but it is still raw, so you have to set
it up in pure command line style.

There is also some discussion on hack&dev, and eyebeam as well (??)
as to python on the distro for the palmtx. python, however, does
not appear do be a package installed on this current release. I
should perhaps talk to the angstrom dev team about that?

I have some images with Pd and Python on them but I haven't released
anything yet. I can post some of the test builds somewhere if you are
interested in trying them.

as you see, I am in a universe of confusions. Can you spare some
guidance, please plz?

much respect, thanks and thanks and thanks,
