Figure it out. I was printing ASCII value 2, which is not visible! Vertical jumper setting works for this board.

Same problem for me. Launchpad is EXP430F5529LP, version 1.5. Tried jumpers horizontal, vertical and cross for Rx/Tx. None of that worked. USB 2.0 on laptop, Dell D410 running Ubuntu 14.04LTS. Thanks in advance for any ideas.

I installed energia. I can connect and programme an example called "Blink" that comes part of energia. But when I run mspdebug directly on command line, I still get: MSPDebug version 0.22 - debugging tool for MSP430 MCUs Copyright (C) 2009-2013 Daniel Beer <dlbeer@gmail.com> This is free software; see the source for copying conditions.

I also copied it to my current working directory from where I launched mspdebug. The error is the same. Please help! BTW, I did not build mspdebug from source. I downloaded the binary from Ubuntu site for Trusty Tahir (14.04LTS).
