Hey, I also have a laptop and only have USB ports. I'm using the
AvrUsb500 (http://www.tuxgraphics.org) programmer and have an article on
setting it up in Linux at http://www.micahcarrick.com/v2/content/view/25/27/
If you're using a serial USB dongle and it's using the FT232x series
chip, you just have to load the kernel module for the driver and then
configure avrdude to use it as a serial port. For example, on Fedora
Linux, the device shows up as /dev/ttyUSBn (where n is the number
starting at 0). So I setup my avrdude conf file to point to /dev/ttyUSB0.

Hi
I am thinking of buying a laptop to carry to robotics competitions to
program bots, most of which use Atmega. Can I use a USB port for programming
using avrdude. What is the port name to be used to use usb in Linux.
Today there were a few mails regarding problems faced in using usb2serial
convertors. Can someone please throw some more light on this topic, an
article or something.
Thanks in Advance
Sumeet
