Hi Tim,
the arduino firware has been fixed these days and there are now new help patches. All this is available in the cvs (externals/hardware/arduino), maybe that solves some of your problems.
The arduino mouse behaviour is strange- I never had this so far (but wowrking on linux)--perhaps you should try to send the [close( message to the [arduino] object before restarting.
Best, Gerda

that to influence the output signals. I have some problems testing them on windows now: when I leave it plugged in and restart the computer, apparently the arduino is regarded as a mouse that goes crazy. The mousepointer jumps around the screen randomly and clicks everywhere...(strange but true!) On Linux I still have to get the arduino to work... In the pd patch for testing, all inputs seem to react somewhat together. There is a photoresistor connected to one inlet, but the others seem to react to it too.
Hope someone can shed some light on this...
Thank you, Tim
