Hi all,

I'm in the middle of a workshop right now, and nothing I planned works. All the users on OSX cannot use the Pduino objects. They all have latest Pd-Extended 0.41.4 and latest Pduino-0.5beta6. They have all successfully loaded the Standard-FirmataV2 (the Standard-Firmata is too big for the Atmega8) to an Arduino NG w/ Atmega8.

Then they open arduino-help.pd, use "devices" to determine the proper port and set the port.

Then I have them test with "pinMode 13 1" followed by "digital 13 1". I see the RX LEDS flash, but the pin 13 LED does nothing. Then I open [pd DIGITAL-OUTPUT] and use that patch to flash all the digital outputs, after setting them to output mode in the main patch. Again, RX lights blink but nothing else.

After that I get long strings of the following:

UNKNOWN INPUT COMMAND: 8 32120 [arduino] warning currently unsupported 160 [arduino] warning currently unsupported 176

This is consistent across every installation, whether PPC or Intel. We can't really go further with Arduino without fixing this, so I hope someone can help.

In contrast, I am using Pduino04.beta2 with Pd-extended-0.39 on my machine and everything works fine. I have also been unble to run any Pduino with Pd-extended-0.41.4. Installing Pduino04.beta2 with Pd-extended-0.39 on a couple of machines of the students hasn't been an effectivbe workaroundm however ([arduino-help.pd] crashes Pd in this case).

Any suggestions welcome. Is there something I totally missed here????
