    I've also confirmed that you can run Processing on the Raspberry Pi. It's very slow, but I did manage to get it to control an Arduino over a USB link: Controlling an Arduino from Raspberry Pi using Processing. I'll see if I can port this to Python/tkinter ... Commented Aug 13, 2012 at 3:07
  • Thanks for this answer it was very useful. I'm using python serial to read from /dev/ttyACM0 and find it very inconsistent. I assumed it was the lack of power to my arduino but I've hooked it up to an external power supply and am still having issues. Sometimes the data is malformed, sometimes an exception is thrown because /dev/ttyACM0 isn't found (though subsequent runs will find it). Have you had similar issues? Commented Nov 6, 2012 at 22:13
  • No, this doesn't match my experience. Commented Nov 7, 2012 at 3:46
  • Thanks for the response - interesting, must be something I'm doing wrong then! Commented Nov 7, 2012 at 9:33
  • Maybe ask a non-Pi specific question on SE, or ask directly on the Arduino forum. Serial comms often gives me a headache ... Commented Nov 7, 2012 at 12:39
