Is there a way to solve this Problem?

I've seen that before, apparently if you use a different program first to open the com port, and then open it with boblightd it works ok, I suspect it's a problem in cygwin.

You were totally right. I've first used Lightpack to open the com-port. When I started boblight it said, that the port is in use, which makes sense. Closing lightpack and starting boblight again and it worked. Also XBMC is successfully connecting. Since I'm working remote on my computer, I can't tell if the lights were on but hey... it finally seems to be working.

Did you solve this problem? I got the same issue. I have to first open the port via atmowin or the Arduino IDE software and then bobligh works. Otherwise I get this error:

Code:
