The MPLAB ICD2 can be used with Linux! The original files our code heavily bases on use the LPLAB code from http://www.landamore.com/pic.html. Though, the LPLAB code was not working for our PIC18F6720 from Microchip, due to problems with parsing the compiled HEX files, the communication with the serial port as well as the communication protocoll which relied on an old and hard-to-get MPLAB ICD2 firmware. Our version works with the MPLAB ICD2 firmware supplied with Microchip's MPLAB 7.21, but should work with any firmware versions. The MPLAB ICD2 is connected to the computer using the serial port, or, preferred, the USB port. Currently, we can set the configuration bits download HEX files generated with the CCSC C compiler and program Particles with it verifiy the downloaded code use USB or serial connection The tool currently provides a command line interfaces. We currently provide the raw sources which so far have been tested with Debian and Gentoo Linux.
