Hi,

I have some questions about JTAG support in the MSPGCC package.

First a problem. I have tried the parallel JTAG stuff on two Linux machines - one with RedHat 7.2 and one with 7.3. In each case I get the same result:

An error occurred:
No connection to target

This seems to come from within the _parjtag.so module, so I can't easily probe around to see what it means. Is this a "parallel port doesn't work" error, or a "I can't find the JTAG gadget" error? In either case, is there a well known reason to get it. One of these machines booted with Windoze, and running Quadrovox's AQ430 software, sees the JTAG port OK so I know the basic hardware setup is basically OK.

With regard to the serial JTAG gadget, has it been tested with a USB to serial converter? Right now this is the environment I would like with my notebook. By next year it looks like there will be no serial and parallel ports on new PCs, and only USB will work. Also, is the intention to manufacture a batch of PCBs for this, and make all our lives easy?

Regards,
Steve
