When the StandardFirmata (v2.3.1 that comes with arduino v1.0) gets compiled and uploaded to an Uno R1 board then if you try to get the REPORT_FIRMWARE it retuns nothing. The problem is located on line 123 of the Firmata.cpp (filename =
strrchr(name, '/') + 1;) and it is caused because I am compiling the .ino and .cpp under Windows 7 (so the __FILE__ is something like C:\Robot\ ... \Firmata.cpp instead of C:/Robot/ ... /Firmata.cpp as expected).
