Thanks fo the info, it works perfect now! Except that Yoshimi synth, but it was kind of expected. It has interesting sounds it is too windows 95 for me. Its a shame. Autoload works fine though. Flags rock

Ok! I managed to autostart my pd patch and jack.

Trying to autostart the bundled Yoshimi soft synth it does not recognize saved patches... Do you think it is possible to autoload a patch with it?

And Jack... I need to make some persistent patching. Do you know how to do it?

In the end I think I should do the synthesis inside Pd, but it is good to be able to auto start several apps and make them work with each other.

Hi, thanks for replying, looking into this now.

Sorry, I can not paste or save anything into the autostart folder. Access denied. What is the procedure?

I can already foresee that I may be able to start Pd but not a specific patch. Can you please tell/show me how to do what?

Thanks a lot

Hey, I need some help with making Linux start a pd patch on boot/login. And qjack and Yosemite soft synth. I use Ubuntu studio 18.04. Should not be too hard, right?

I am trying to get communication working with a arduino nano clone and purr data with Pduino. I have just moved the Pd files from the mac where it worked fine (but I had to go through a process to get the nano port visible in the system).

Can anyone tell me how to do this on linux?

Edit: In Arduino IDE under ports it says ttyS0 and ttyS4, but NOT "ttyUSB..." as I see it should in instruction videos. Can I have been installing Arduino IDE the wrong way?

Thanks a lot, it worked fine it seems!

I installed Bionic Beaver 18.04, 32 bit, downloaded through torrent from this page:
https://ubuntustudio.org/download/

Should I go for Disco Dingo 19.04 64 bit instead?

I installed this on a old pc that supports 64 bit but only has 2gb ram.

Thanks!

Hi,

can someone please help me to make a working purr data installation? I have downloaded pd-l2ork-2.9.0-ubuntu_14.04-i386.zip.

What would be the right way of installing it. Extracting the archive and double clicking the resulting file leads to the Ubuntu app store and option to install. Installing does not produce any icon or such.

Thankful for help :/

another though, what would be the best distro to use for a live webcam streaming setup (on another computer)? I will use OBS studio. Would Ubuntu studio be the best here too?

@whale-av Yeah, I hope to get some glitches for free on this setup

It actually works good enough for some pd projects that I have run from raspberry pies or my macbookpro 2011. Got it for free, starts up without screen, keyboard and mouse and is the size of a thick laptop. No problem if it gets destroyed or stolen; I can leave it on site.

Just don't want to open a can of worms when starting to check out Linux... Rather spend time in the pd patch than in the linux os.
