Hi Xavier,

Your instructions have worked for me except one thing. When I run it I get the 
following errors:

debug:     msp430: msp430_open()
debug: MSP430_Initialize()
fixme:comm:set_queue_size insize 2048 outsize 2048 unimplemented stub
error:     msp430: The FET tool version does not match this program. Update 
required.

Which FET tool version did you use?  We're using the MSP-FET430UIF tool.

Thank you for your time,

Yvan

usb fet from ti, msp430-gdbproxy and Linux (Ubuntu 8.04)

Update:

file created inside dosdevices must be com1 instead of COM1.

type:

ln -s /dev/ttyUSB0 ~/.wine/dosdevices/com1

and launch:

wine c:\\msp430-gdbproxy.exe --debug msp430 COM1



have fun

Hi all,

I think is one of the most asked questions in this list and it has been 
bothering me for two days. And finally I think I got an acceptable solution.

The main problem is that new devices are not supported by linux libraries, and 
then msp430-gdbproxy must be run in windows in order to use dll from CCE or IAR.



The basic idea is to run msp430-gbdproxy.exe (windows version with windows 
dlls) using wine.

First of all thanks to Stephen Glow who has published almost this solution and 
posted basic files, and gave me the idea and how to get it running.



First step is to get msp430 usb fet working. Just download file from 
http://www.embeddedintelligence.com/mspfet_driver.zip, unzip and follow the 
instructions.



Following those instructions you must see a serial port in /dev/ttyUSB0

Next step is to install wine (which is not in the scope of this basic howto).

Next step is to create a virtual port inside wine. Just go to 
~/.wine/dosdevices and type: ln -s /dev/ttyUSB0 COM1



Then unzip http://www.embeddedintelligence.com/wingdbproxy.zip in 
~/.wine/drive_c

Final step is to get it working, just type:



wine c:\\msp43-gdbproxy.exe --debug msp430 COM1

Note that it seems impossible to update fet firmware using wine (don't know 
why), so, if needed just use a different window machine to update fet firmware 
using standard way.



Questions and comments, below.
