Yes proper FTDI drivers installed.

The Analog Firmata works, however the Standard Firmata is totally broken.

    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????
