Title: Linux and AVR
Post by: z.s.tar.gz on February 24, 2009, 08:45:53 PM
Does anyone know if linux (ubuntu most likely) plays nice with AVR?
I really don't want to get XP to start robot-ing(?)

I'm pretty sure ponyprog works, I don't know if there is an equivalent to avrstudio or other.

Yep, it works just fine using AVRDude and a C compiler.

I use Eclipse with the AVR plugin and it works great.  I can code and upload all from the same application.

it's a little buggy in places but they are all workable,

I learned you have to install Kontrollerlab from the source. It will probably not install correctly with the .deb package.

Also, Kontrollerlab is a KDE application, which might look a bit funny if you use gnome.  I had some issues running it on 64-bit Ubuntu.

Hmm. I guess I can delete my XP partition. (I was running out of disk space anyways.)
Thanks a ton!

Edit: I installed AVRdude, might look into making a frontend for it sometime, but otherwise looks good.
