Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430G2553, MSP-FET

“MSP430: Error initializing emulator: No USB FET was found.”

I've re-installed V5 (5.5.0.00077) to no avail.

The environment is: Ubuntu v12.10, LaunchPad MSP-EXP430G2 with an MSP430G2553

Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi Kaan,

Are you using Vmware or core Ubuntu?

Unfortunately the G2 MSP430 LaunchPad isn't supported on Linux, and far as I know there are no plans to support it. The newer Launchpads (for F5529 and FR5969) are supported on Linux with CCSv6.

allow flashing the MSP-EXP430G2 on Linux ?

Hi David,

As the DIP socket is present, you'll be able to program and debug using external MSP-FET tool. But do note that this board has an on-board emulator.
