Hi Tom.
I now know what is going on. The last revision of the 169 (June 2003)
has a revised JTAG interface, with more features. This requires a newer
version of the TI library code. I have this, but I have not released an
updated gdbproxy using it. I have been overhauling gdbproxy to try to
speed up writes to flash by buffering them. I was going to wait until
that is done. Since this is causing you problems I will get an interim
update out in a couple of days.
Regards,
Steve

Hello Steve,
First things first, thanks for the great tool! One of the wonderful
things about it is that I can and do use gdbproxy under both Windows
and Linux.
I should have been a little more clear in my error description.
gdbproxy returns "msp430: Target device is a 'Device unknown' (type
0)". This error started occurring after replacing a 149 part with a
169 part on our board (the 149 part would identify correctly). The
same problem has occurred on two different boards and has also been
verified by placing a 169 part into the ZIF socket of our TI FET kit.
This same error occurs under both Windows and Linux ports. 149 parts
work great, but 169 parts (or at least this lot of parts) don't.
