Hi All,
I am trying to program my texas instruments MSP430 microcontroller via the
paralell port. I have made a symlink from to /dev/lp0, and made sure
everyboody can read and write to it:
$ ls -l /dev/lp0
crwxrwxrwx 1 root lp 6, 0 2007-05-27 12:37 /dev/lp0
Next i have installed IAR embedded workbench using this installer:
http://www-s.ti.com/sc/techzip/slac050.zip
Installing goes without any error, and also running the program works great. I
can debug my program in simulation mode without any problem.
Next i change the options of the project, and choose the FET debugger, Texas
instrument LPT-IF, and parallel port 1.
Now i choose project-debug. Now i get the following pop-up message: "No
device
found or device disconnected. Please connect the device and press retry to
reconnect, or press cancel to abort" In the console i get the following
messages:
$ wine /home/cedric/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/IAR\ Systems/Embedded\
Workbench\ 4.0/common/bin/IarIdePm.exe
fixme:htmlhelp:HtmlHelpW HH case HH_INITIALIZE not handled.
fixme:htmlhelp:HtmlHelpW HH case HH_CLOSE_ALL not handled.
fixme:setupapi:SetupDiClassGuidsFromNameExA
fixme:setupapi:SetupDiGetClassDevsW returning empty list
fixme:setupapi:SetupDiEnumDeviceInfo 0x1d9b28 0 0x33f318
Now i click "retry". Now i get the following pop up message:
"FATAL ERROR Failed to re-initalize Session aborted!"
And in the console:
fixme:setupapi:SetupDiClassGuidsFromNameExA
fixme:setupapi:SetupDiGetClassDevsW returning empty list
fixme:setupapi:SetupDiEnumDeviceInfo 0x1dd680 0 0x33f2b4
When i disconnect the microcontroller, i get the following errormessages after
pressing project->debug:
In the pop-up:
"No device found or device disconnected. Please connect the device and
press
retry to reconnect, or press cancel to abort"
In the console:
fixme:setupapi:SetupDiClassGuidsFromNameExA
fixme:setupapi:SetupDiGetClassDevsW returning empty list
fixme:setupapi:SetupDiEnumDeviceInfo 0x1d71e0 0 0x33f318
After clikcing "retry" i see the folloinwing the pop-up:
"FATAL ERROR Failed to re-initalize Session aborted!"
And in the console:
fixme:setupapi:SetupDiClassGuidsFromNameExA
fixme:setupapi:SetupDiGetClassDevsW returning empty list
fixme:setupapi:SetupDiEnumDeviceInfo 0x199090 0 0x33f2b4
My versions:
IAR Embedded Workbench Kickstart Version 4.61
Kubuntu 7.04
wine-0.9.37
$ uname -a
Linux athlon 2.6.20-15-generic #2 SMP Sun Apr 15 07:36:31 UTC 2007 i686

Can somebody tell me what the above erros mean?
Best regards,
