HI -
      This forum looks to be above my level, but I don't know where else to go 
at      this point.      I have a mac laptop running macosX 10.4.11, and a 
Usbtiny programmer.        I'm trying to use them to program Atmega328p 
processors.  I've successfully       programmed an Arduino bootloader using the 
Usbtiny and a Duemilanove board,       with the Arduino 0018 IDE.  Therefore I 
believe that my hardware (up to the       Atmegaxx8 target board anyway) is 
good. 
      I would like to move beyond the Arduino and start programming with gcc 
and libc.        I've installed avr-gcc and built a .hex file of the demo 
program, but can't get       avrdude to write to the chip.  I started with 
avrdude 5.4, which would recognize the       Usbtiny but not the m328p 
processor (so I tried programming it as an Atmega168,       but got an rc= -1 
error).      Then I moved on to avrdude-5.5 which doesn't recognize EITHER the 
Usbtiny OR      the Atmega328p.  I then moved on to avrdude-5.10 with exactly 
the same results.
      I keep seeing references to patch files in the various forums, but never 
with an      source or directions.  I looked thru the makefile in the avrdude 
directory and it      looks as tho the usbtiny.c file is being included in the 
build.  The direction pages       and manuals all stop at running the configure 
and just assume everything will be      fine.  
      Could someone point me to a source for low level information for someone  
     starting from scratch?
                                                  Thanks,
                                                            nav
