Each Makefile has a different way of looking for the path where m_pd.h, and 
where it is located on your system depends on how you installed Pd ...
normally `find /usr/include /usr/local/include -name m_pd.h` will tell you 
where the file is. Once you know where it is, you can inspect the `Makefile` to 
figure out which way to pass this information to it.
Normally this boils down to passing some options to `make`, such as 
PDINCLUDEDIR=/path/to/containing/folder or CFLAGS="-DPD 
-I/path/to/containing/folder" or others, depending on the content of the Makefile 
(these are two real-world examples). (or you can just hardcode the path in the Makefile 
next to where you see a `-I/somepath `, add ` -I/path/to/containing/folder` and see if it 
works.

A link to the source files would be useful if you need further help.

OK interesting - with the verbose flag on I can see that it is finding 
comport.pd_linux, but it says “/lib/libc.so.6: version ‘GLIBC_2.27’ not found 
(required by /home/tc/comport_test/comport.pd_linux)”

I assume that means that it needs to be compiled for the board specifically, as 
you mention.

Unfortunately when I try to compile it on the board I get yet another, 
different error. In that case it says “fatal error: m_pd.h: No such file or 
directory”.

I think I understand that it’s looking for where Pd is installed, but I can’t 
seem to find where that file is in Tiny Core Linux.

Thanks Giuilio!

That's a Linux build, but is it an ARM build compatible with the architecture 
in use?
Try `file /path/to/comport.ld_linux` and make sure you get the same result as 
you'd get for any externals that actually work. You can run `Pd` with the 
verbose flag and that should print some extra info about the paths it is 
attempting to open. In fairness, it should be pretty straightforward to just 
build it from source on the board, which guarantees you get the correct binary.

Hello everyone,
As a follow up to my post a few weeks ago about startup times on Raspberry Pi, 
I have been exploring Tiny Core Linux (v9) on a Pi 3. Generally speaking this 
is super promising, with startup times around 15 seconds and it seems very 
stable.
Some of the things I want to run on this system require external libraries. I 
have managed to get zexy working, for example, by simply including the library 
in the same folder as the patch that uses it.
I have not had the same success with comport. Including a linux build of the 
comport object in the folder with the project does not work - I get a “couldn’t 
create” error when I launch the patch. I have tried declaring the library with 
the -lib flag, but that gives me an error saying “comport: can’t load library”.
I have installed the USB-Serial extension, though I’m not sure if I’ve missed a 
step there to make it work properly.
This feels like a long shot, but has anyone managed to get comport working on 
Tiny Core Linux?
Alternatively, has anyone used USB MIDI with Tiny Core Linux? That isn’t 
working for me either.
As usual, any tips would be excellent, many thanks.
Yann
