Re: AVR Dragon with OS X Intel Machine

I've checked and I'm currently using the latest stable version of libusb 
(0.1.12).  I've tried it again, and this time I've had some degree of 
success.  The only difference I can think of is whether or not I had the 
ISP cable connected to the target when the dragon was powered up. I'm 
trying to program an atmega8515 that came with the STK500 kit.  I can 
program over an FTDI serial-usb connector to the stk drictly using the 
mac, but the dragon still doesn't want to talk to things consistently.  
I've disabled the reset jumper on the stk500, and attached the ISP 
connector between he two boards (for the appropriate programming socket).

Now when I try to program through the dragon I get a different decvice 
signature each time I try to connect to the AVR (chip isn't fried or 
wacky, things work when I slip back over to using the serial connector).

I've attached one of the logs.  The device signature never matches up 
with the legitimate one, though some of the bytes usually match.

Best, and thanks for the reply.  I highly appreciate any aid :-)
