at the risk of this being *slightly* off-topic, i want to spend
today mucking with my flyswatter2 and openocd and my bb-xm (and
documenting my adventures along the way), so given the page above,
other than the pics being slightly cognitively dissonant, is the
general recipe still valid?
i followed along, connected my fs2 and bb-xm with both cables, then
connected the fs2 via USB cable to my fedora 20 system and, lo, what
appeared in /var/log/messages:

so i'm taking that as a good sign. more shortly and, yes, i'll write a
wiki page somewhere about this once it's all working.
