I hacked a quick proof of concept out of ekeyd all it does is talk to a hardwired bulk endpoint, which is good enough for some ACM devices, apparently. It’s still possible to communicate with the device from userspace using libusb. It’s claimed that they will be supported soon.

Mac OS X currently does not support serial devices contained in IAD composites. I’ll report back on the success or failure of that. I haven’t tried this solution on my PowerPC Mac yet using Q.

NOTE: VirtualBox is only for Intel Macs.Create new VirtualBox running Ubuntu 10.10.

Not to mention, now you have a good Linux build to play with! Unplugging the device and plugging it back in (and selecting it in the Virtual Box USB menu) gets it working again. The programmer will timeout over and over again and the red LED will be lit indicating an error. The only issue I’ve found is that there appears to be an problem issuing consecutive commands through avrdude to the programmer. I did a quick test by following the user guide for BlinkLED project and it worked. Once I did that, I reissued a ‘ls /dev/tty*’ and what do you know, ttyACM0 and 1 were there! Clicking on that, I was able to select the ‘Pololu USB AVR Programmer’. Then I noticed a tiny little USB-looking icon in the border of the Virtual Box window. I opened a Terminal window and did a ‘ls /dev/tty*’ and looked for /dev/ttyACM0 and /dev/ttyACM1.

Once Ubuntu is up and running, use Synaptic Package manager to install gcc-avr, avr-libc, binutils-avr, and avrdude, as directed by the m328P user guide. Installation takes a bit, but remember, you only have to do it once. I installed Ubuntu in lieu of ‘Trying Ubuntu’. I gave the virtual box 8 GB of hard drive space and let it use 768MB of RAM. I installed VirtualBox then told it to build a new Linux virtual box using the Ubuntu 10.10 iso. I downloaded VirtualBox 3.2.10 for OS X hosts here:ĭ/virtualb … 23-OSX.dmg * So, I headed over to /desktop/get-ubuntu/download and downloaded the 32-bit version of 10.10. Ubuntu 10.10 recognizes the USB AVR Programmer and assigns it a ttyACM0 and ttyACM1 just as Mac OS X should do if it wasn’t so busy trying to look cool. This workaround involves using Sun’s VirtualBox to run an instance of Ubuntu 10.10. After the restart nothing is installed and USB Orangutang still not working. I go through the process of installing the drivers, before anything is installed i get prompted to restart or shutdown. I am trying to get the drivers to install on my Mac. USB orangutang Drivers not installing on MAC A-Star and Orangutan Also, I followed the steps here for fixing the Pololu.kext: I may uninstall it later today to see if it disappears.

I installed the CP2102 drivers for Mac Os X located here: Why? I have no idea, but I have some theories.

When I use System Profiler on my Mac, I notice under the USB section the Pololu USB AVR Programmer is listed. There is a bit of a mystery that should be mentioned. Hold on a moment, before I begin, I have to confess something. I tried all sorts of things to get it to work, to no avail. Of course, that’s pure speculation derived from many posts I’ve read around the internet. I believe this feature was taken away around update 10.4.8. I found that out yesterday when I was trying to get everything working.Įventually, I discovered that the core of the issue is that Mac OS X will no longer recognize a USB-to-serial device. However, I failed to notice that the USB AVR Programmer is not compatible with any Mac OS. I took advantage of the recent sale on and picked up a Baby-O m328P combo with the USB AVR Programmer as well as a 3pi.
