hi!
i run pd on raspberry pi, with some sensors connected, and control from an app 
via OSC
there are many things that can go wrong, pd actually just does audio playback 
of 4channel files.
this thing is running as an installation in a museum, so far quite stable, 
since the last week there was one ocasion where the raspberry or pd crash.
i actually have no idea how to find out what why this happens 
(have to find out where to find crash - reports…)

maybe it would be a good thing to automatically shutdown the raspi at 18h 
everyday.

thanks for the tips!
