Frida 4 Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 I followed an instruction from:http://www.colotronics.blogspot.com.ar/2014/08/msp430-toolchain-in-ubuntu-1404-with.htmlDown the page:# OPTIONAL TILIB v3 installation of msp fet430uif debugger, ignore if you do not have itI also need to installsudo apt-get install libusb-1.0Then I have to do mspdebug tilib --allow-fw-update several times. Maby as su.Now it sees my msp430fr5969 Launchpad with EnergiTrace.Now I think the fun starts! colotron 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
colotron 5 Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 It happens to me also, I have to do mspdebug tilib several times before a connection is established with the debugger. I don't know why, but doesn't represent a huge problem neither. This is a screenshot of the errors: After several of those the communication is established normally, without doing anything in between other than execute mspdebug tilib. In fact, the last message is a normal initialization, but I don't have any msp430 connected to the debugger, thats why error = 5. If the udev rules are defined you don't need to use su. The allow-fw-update thing is needed one time only, after the installation of TILIB on the PC. I will add the libusb-1.0.0 dependency, thanks for the observation Frida 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Frida 4 Posted August 4, 2014 Author Share Posted August 4, 2014 The allow-fw-update thing is needed one time only, after the installation of TILIB on the PC.I had to do it several times, maybe because I had tried so many other things without success. So now I having fun with Launchpad msp430fr5969 and the UECIDE. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
zborgerd 62 Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Pretty sure that this new release of tilib is mandatory. I have an older version and this board reports as unrecognized. Going to update it later. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
zborgerd 62 Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 So I built a new tilib and the board is fine with all of my tools. Unfortunately, I've been running into a lot of problems with FET corruption on this FR5969LP board and also the 5529LP. The flash ultimately fails on Linux but seems to recover on a Windows machine with the flasher utility. But now that I have the FET fiwmare up-to-date, everything seems to work well.

colotron 5 Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Pretty sure that this new release of tilib is mandatory. I have an older version and this board reports as unrecognized. Going to update it later. Ok, I modified slightly the optional sentence So I built a new tilib and the board is fine with all of my tools. Nice to know. I did a lot of things before arriving to a valid build of the whole toolchain, due more to my lack of knowledge than the process itself. Hopefully I can save somebody time and nerves zborgerd 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
