On osx, sometimes starting serial doesn't work, it gets stuck I have to toggle 3 times, then it creates a new group also. I logged this today.

[tablatronix]

I think this happens when removing or adding devices

[gepd]

Is this happent to you with all your devices? what device are you using?

[tablatronix]

I think both were cp2102

[tablatronix]

ohh let me try not using my usbc dongle

[tablatronix]

ok this issue is not just osx, happens on windows also. The problem is the port stays open after closing the monitor , so it gets stuck in a inverted state

open monitor close the tab its in monitor port stays open, status bar stays green

(menu says start always) try to start monitor again , and it stops, bar goes red

[tablatronix]

this also causes serial monitor to get stuck on, or not stopped when uploading resulting it upload failures. So it seems there is some kind of loss of state of serial , where it gets inverted etc.

[gepd]

I've made some tweaks in the way to handle the status bar color and you shouldn't problems now, however I wasn't able to reproduce the read failed: device reports readiness to read but returned no data (device disconnected or multiple access on port?) error

Can you check if you keep having it?

[tablatronix]

It looks like there is a bug in the serial state tracking.. I start serial monitor using deviot quick menu, it is running.. But menu thinks it is not

This happens now and then and seems to be related maybe to #292

[tablatronix]

I think this all started when you added the serial popup every time starting serial.

It seems to break constantly , serial always says its running, menu says its not, cannot run it after ota, it says running but no data, I have to send to reactivate it, but send its always greyed out.. its very strange and annoying, I will have to try to din into serial.py and figure out wtf is going on or at least add some error handling, atm I am python copy paste level expertise.. lol

[gepd]

I promise I'll check it this weekend!

[tablatronix]

lol, if not give me some hints and I can hack at it.. or test it outside of deviot, if its a python command line call

[gepd]

can you check if the last commit solves this problem?

[tablatronix]

Seems more stable, I will test more tomorrow

[tablatronix]

Seems to have issues uploading now with serial running, as if serial is blocking it and not stopping and restarting or what it used to do

I've reverted a commit who should be causing this errors, can you test it now?

[tablatronix]

New one maybe

Serial shows green, nothing shows up console says
