[Tinyos-help] rz200

[Jürgen Broder]

Thanks for your answer Janos! The libusb IS INSTALLED (i am using ubuntu 
8.04)! I already have worked with the RZ200 before i tried using TinyOs. 
Just installed the avrdude package and used the *-P usb *option - 
everything worked fine. I recognized that there are two different 
avrdude packages, the one delivered with tinyos (*avrdude-tinyos*) and 
the "original" one (*avrdude*), am i right? So i decided to install the 
"original" one again for testing purpose, resulting in deinstallation of 
the avrdude-tinyos package due to package conflicts. And suddenly i had 
access to the AVRISP mkii again. When i am using avrdude-tinyos it still 
says: "avrdude compiled without usb support" and the console suddenly 
gives strange characters. I am really despaired, so do you have any 
other ideas? Thanksalot.

Best regards
Jürgen
