Hi Sean,
Your FET430UIF is running V3 firmware (USB ID 2047:0010). The "uif"
driver is for FETs running V2 firmware -- the protocol and USB interface
are completely different.
You have two options:
The first is to compile TI's open-source MSP430.DLL. You'll need to
install Boost development headers (libboost-dev). If you type "make",
you should end up with a file called libmsp430.so, which should be
placed in /usr/local/lib. Once you have that, you should be able to use
your debugger with:
mspdebug tilib
The other option is to downgrade your debugger to V2 firmware. For this,
you'll first have to find a V2 firmware image.
Instructions for both procedures are here:
http://mspdebug.sourceforge.net/tilib.html
Note that the patches linked to on this page are no longer required with
the latest MSP430.DLL source.
Cheers,
Daniel
