Angela,
Here's what I do as root to use the parallel port for msp-gdbproxy or
OpenOCD.
/etc/init.d/lpd stop
mknod /dev/parport0 c 99 0
chmod 777 /dev/parport0
I also have this gdb command in .gdbinit so I don't have to remember too
much.
define remo
echo (gdb) target remote :2000\n
target remote :2000
end
I hope this helps.
Sincerely,
David Smead

Hi guys,
I'm really new to msp430 and jtag, and as part of my university project I
have to manage somehow to use jtag and msp430-gdb. I have read the manual,
and unfortunately have been unsuccessful...
I'm using linux (debian) kernel 2.6.x and parallel jtag adapter.
msp430-gdbproxy gives me the following error:
error: msp430: Could not find device (or device not supported) (4)
dmesg shows this:
[ 3487.084000] ppdev0: registered pardevice
[ 3487.212000] ppdev0: released pardevice because user-space forgot
[ 3487.212000] ppdev0: unregistered pardevice
I assume there is something wrong with my config but don't know where to
start....
/dev/parport0 is read/writable by everyone and I have stopped cupsd - no
other programs/daemons are using the parallel port.
Any advice would be really appreciated as I'm kinda lost here. Might be that
my question is really silly but I'm really new to this stuff so apologies in
advance :)
My device is a tmote sky from moteiv.
Thanks
Angela.
