AVRISP MKII doesn't work with AVRDUDE on Linux

Question

The system sees something is plugged in when I plug and unplug it:

bluehat@Matapan:/dev$ tail -f /var/log/syslog
Mar 23 15:36:35 Matapan kernel: [156082.1128         


        

Answer 1

For Ubuntu 12.04, there's a minor change that must be carried out to the configuration that Katy posted:

All occurrences of SYSFS should be replaced with ATTR

Additionally, if you're still having problems, make sure you have installed all the required dependent libraries. I found that I had to install the uisp package as well.

If restarting udev doesn't make a difference, unplugging the programmer and plugging it in back in does.
