Please let me know if you think it is.<br><br>I have been working on my arduino-based pedal, and im faced with a peculiar<br>problem right now. I'm using 8 digital inputs ( 6 on the first socket of the<br>board, inputs 2 through 8, and 2 on the second digital socket, inputs 9 and<br>10). The first 6 inputs work perfectly, but when i want to use any of the<br>last two inputs (9 and 10), i have to trigger them twice before they start<br>working. Then i'm faced with the exact same problem when i get back to the<br>first 6 inputs. I am pretty sure that i used the very same wiring for all 8<br>inputs.<br><br>So... I thought that maybe this could be a problem with firmata or pduino<br>(no offense, Hans!). I have been spending the last hour trying to write a<br>simple program in the arduino software in order to print in serial monitor<br>the values of my digital inputs.<br><br>Now my question... Is the arduino software just really really bad? Or was it<br>just not designed to work on an ubuntu machine? It is randomly very slow at<br>start-up, it randomly disables the serial port menu in Tools, it randomly<br>decides to prevent me from uploading the program in the board, or warns me<br>that serial port dev/ttyACM0 is already in use, or can't be found. The fact<br>that i unplug and replug the board, or change the usb port, or restart the<br>software doesn't seem to make any difference.<br><br>This is beginning to look more like witchcraft than computer science to me.<br><br>Please help me, or i'll teach it how to fly out my window.<br><br>Thank you.<br><br>Pierre<br><br><o:p></o:p></span></font></p></div></div></div><div style="margin-top: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0cm; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; "><font size="3" face="Times New Roman"><span style="font-size: 12pt; "><o:p> </o:p></span></font></div></div></div>_______________________________________________<br><a href="mailto:Pd-list@iem.at" style="color: blue; text-decoration: underline; ">Pd-list@iem.at</a><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>mailing list<br>UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list" style="color: blue; text-decoration: underline; ">http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list</a><br></div></span></blockquote></div><br><div> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: auto; -khtml-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -apple-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; "><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: auto; -khtml-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -apple-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; "><div><br style="font-family: Tahoma; "></div><div>----------------------------------------------------------------------------<br style="font-family: Tahoma; "></div><div><br class="khtml-block-placeholder"></div><div>Man has survived hitherto because he was too ignorant to know how to realize his wishes.
