Is this the same computer? If not, it may be a hardware problem, e.g. missing zener diodes.

Hi all
After googling for a day I found out the problem was permissions. I should call avrdude as root!!! really crazy problem!

Code: Select all

 sudo avrdude -c usbasp -p m8

This depends on your Linux configuration. As far as I know, you can configure hotplug to set less restrictive permissions for particular USB devices. By default, only root has full access.

Hi all, with christian suggestions and some googling I used these simple instructions for adding permissions to users for using usb device:


How to add user permission for USBasp (I have tested this method in ubuntu 7.10):
source:http://www.bitpim.org/help/

1. Create new rule for udev

Code: Select all

sudo gedit /etc/udev/rules.d/60-objdev.rules

2. Edit new rule in gedit and add following:

Code: Select all

   SUBSYSTEM!="usb_device", ACTION!="add", GOTO="objdev_rules_end"
   # USBasp
   SYSFS{idVendor}=="16c0", SYSFS{idProduct}=="05dc", GROUP="users", MODE="666"
   LABEL="objdev_rules_end"

3. Restart udev.

Code: Select all

   sudo /etc/init.d/udev restart

In Ubuntu 12-04 LTS udev rules using SYSFS do not work. ATTRS(..) do work.
