It's a known issue that if a connection is not released in the software and the cable is unplugged, comport and Pd will crash. It should not affect the Operating system however.
AFAIK since the Ardunio connection is'nt a hotpluggable USB connection but rather a serial-over-USB connection there is not much you can do about it.

[comport] crashes my system (Ubuntu 11.10) when the USB cable from my Arduino gets disconnected accidentally.
Is there anything one can do about this besides turning off the connection beforehand on [comport]?
Obviously this wouldn't help if you do it by mistake ...
