and the cable is unplugged, comport and Pd will crash. It should not affect the Operating system however.Hasn't that issue been fixed?
Not that I know of. Maybe newer Arduinos have a USB driver that handles this better?
I think it's on the [comport] side that it has been fixed. Maybe it's combined with a better handling from the Arduino itself. I guess Martin Peach can answer this.
AFAIK the only way to get around this issue is to use a Byron/Minia http://www.1010.co.uk/org/byron.html and use the HID or MIDI-USB for the (Sensor-)input. Newer Arduinos should be able to reprogram the USB Atmel chip to behave like a Keyboard/HID/MIDI-USB, That would work too.
The Arduino Leonardo is designed to behave like a keyboard, as far as I know, not the Uno.
My computer won't crash if I unplug the Arduino without closing the serial port.
And Pd is not freezing either?
Nope, it just throws an error message (or a few of them) saying that the connection to the serial device has been lost..
More precisely, it says that it lost connection and that it retries to obtain it. After a few attempts (around 10) it gives up, but no crash.
