Great! Thanks. I would like to try this as well. Just installed Ubuntu Linux and it looks very nice on the Dell 600M notebook I have. As a first try of PIC on Linux, I have got the PICKit 1 working. I found the two links. The second link claims more supported chips (including some 16F) but I have not tried it out yet. The first program works with Ubuntu ( with built-in version of libusb). I have problem to compile the CVS checkout of libusb. I tried only the Pickit 1 (firmware 2.02) and 12F629. I will try to see if it support other chips as well (I have 12F675, 12F635). It seems not yet supporting the base line chips (10F, 12F50x, etc) yet. http://charm.cs.uiuc.edu/users/olawlor/projects/2003/microchip http://mlug.missouri.edu/~markrages/software/usb_pickit/ Xiaofan -----Original Message----- From: email@micahcarrick.com [mailto:email@micahcarrick.com] Sent: Tuesday, April 26, 2005 7:07 AM To: piclist@mit.edu Subject: [PIC] - Another article on PIC programming in Linux...
