Hi guys!

I'm really a newbie on this and I'm afraid to broke something with a wrong instalation.

I just bought a Raspberry Pi 3, it came with Noobs, but a friend told me that I should install an OS that come already with PD installed.

I already wrote a patch on windows with PD_extended and now I would like to have it on Raspberry Pi 3, can anyone help me on this?

all the best and thanks a lot in advance!

Installing Pd with apt-get gives you vanilla (which is better since Extended is no longer maintained), but there's a bunch of externals available from the repositories. Type this in a terminal:
apt-cache search ^pd-
and you'll get all the available externals (like pd-zexy, etc.). Then you can use apt-get install to install the ones you need.

Hi guys, thanks a lot for your help.

I ran sudo apt-get install puredata but not i'm not finding the pd editor, it's not on the apps windows, can anyone help me?

thanksa lot in advance

It should be on one of the app groups on the top left part of the screen. Otherwise, open a terminal and type pd

i got a "ash: pd: command not found"

That means that Pd is not installed in your system. Type this:
dpkg -s pd
and post the output here. If the package is installed, then this command will return an "installed ok", otherwise it will tell you that the specific package is not installed in the system.

You are right! I already managed to install it and now it’s perfect

Thanks a lot for your care

Gives a segfault on my Pi...

@MeneerJansen On which version of the RPI?

It's a Raspberry Pi 1B+. But aren't they all ARMHF based?

Since you're the kind developer of Purrdata: why don't the old patches for Pd-extended work flawless? See this topic about the super great Miniwoog patch. I like to use the wonderful patches from http://www.pdpatchrepo.info/patches. But if they do not work anymore... For instance: from the Miniwoog patch the "on screen" keyboard does not work, neither can you load the presets. Sorry to bother you. Thank you for continuing the great Pd-extended work.
